About

Design is giving aesthetic form to ideas conceived in the mind.  

Design tells you something deeper than the outward appearance; it’s a statement, commentary, inspiration, lesson; it points to beauty and truth.

A beautiful design has the power to lift you up and raise your mind to the subject of the designer’s inspiration.

Here, I strive to make meaningful, excellent work that has the power to transform. This work takes time and therefore fast fashion has no place in this design process. I work to balance this intentional design with the needs and functionality of the wearer.  Here fashion must be thought out, have intention, and be purposefully crafted.
