I started out doing everything on a custom scale and when that started paying the bills I started making more pieces.

I started designing and getting into cutting and sewing, I also started learning how to do patterns and tech packs. From there I transitioned from challenging myself to make T-shirts to starting to make custom pieces for celebrities.

I wasn't able to afford high-end brands or any of that, so I grew up on streetwear.

Somebody once told me if you're doing what you're supposed to you don't have to force it.

I want to represent the street, not in a negative sense, but in the sense that when I was growing up, that's what I grew up on.

I'm based in Atlanta so there weren't a lot of people to talk to about fashion because no one was really doing it on the scale that I wanted to do it. I had to do a lot of research on my own.
