People who devote themselves to a life of style are admirable.

My muses were all the incredible, iconic women of glamour in Hollywood that I have worked with over 15 years. Anjelica Huston, Michelle Pfeiffer, Gwyneth Paltrow, Lena Dunham, Viola Davis, Rihanna, Demi Moore.

I started cooking out of middle school depression.

There’s not one major greatest influence on my career. It would be film and great artists and great imagineers - Jim Henson, Walt Disney, Charlie Chaplin, people who understand the joy of the imagination.

I want to be a major force.

Be non-trend-driven, and explore, be creative and take risks as an artist and as a cultural communicator.

For the red carpet, I think dress first and the makeup to follow.
