I really learn from something that really inspires me and it becomes something that I remember.

I tend to like the most basic pieces with the perfect fit and fabric, like a simple tank.

My friends always joke that I run on batteries.

A lot of designers get caught up in the creativity, but you've got to think about the legs of your collection - essentially, how the line is going to move forward.

No one is going to understand your brand better than you.

I thought I would attend school and get an assistant position and work my way up but being in NY and seeing the pace of everything, is very inspiring.

I’m not like most designers, who have to set sail on an exotic getaway to get inspired. Most of the time, it’s on my walk to work, or sitting in the subway and seeing something random or out of context.
