I want to be recognized but I don't seek it out.

I wanted to give people an experience. I wanted them to get their money's worth.

Starting out is very difficult if you don't have a clientele.

The thing is you can be a great designer but you can also be lazy or not understand the other person's preferences or be more concerned about being a star than being good at what you do.

I didn't go to school for fashion, I didn't have anybody to teach me anything about fashion - that's all I knew how to do, graphic design.

I believe that if you work hard enough and do things the right way recognition will come.

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