I began sewing in 2007 and stepped it up in 2009 when I started taking classes with a wonderful sewing and design instructor at Thimble Pleasures in Chapel Hill, NC. Since then, I have presented runway collections at three fashion shows.

I enjoy working with quirky fabrics, and I increasingly try to re-purpose materials in an effort to be more sustainable. Oftentimes, the fabrics I select guide the design process.
