I had an appreciation for clothes and style starting at a young age, my mom was always very fashionable and I loved playing dress up in her closet. So I think my passion for design was always there.

Every designer has to stand behind and believe in what they are creating.

I find NY very inspiring, there is an amazing energy and flow of creativity in NY like nowhere else.

I like to go out, but sometimes it's nice to stay cozy at home, watching movies or TV, especially early in the week.

I had always wanted to expand to beauty, but I knew I wanted to be able to translate my design aesthetic in an authentic way.

I always take a less-is-more approach to my routine, and use products that create a sun-kissed glow that can transition from day to night.
