I am a dressmaker, a storyteller,
so many other things.

​I am passionate about making clothes.
I find it powerful to wear clothing with purpose and meaning.

In the fashion world,
I found a place to express my creativity,
connect with women,
empower them with my clothing,
break stereotypes,
advocate sustainability,
be the change in the industry.

In my world,
I seek to be honest with myself
and with those around me.

Everyday,
I strive to be the best version of myself.
My family and my friends
are the most important thing to me.

I am a student of life.
I am always curious to learn, grow & change.
I love to experience new things,

I believe that my dreams are one step out of my comfort zone so I live accordingly.

​In the outside world,
I seek to understand
the reflection of others within me,
love & empathize
with the people I meet.

I am always looking
to put myself in other people's shoes,
let myself go for a moment,
listen non judgementally.

Through my work,
I hope to be a breath of fresh air,
a new light shining in the industry.

A source of inspiration for the dreamers,
a mirror to the ones seeking authenticity,
a way to serve,
with pure intention and integrity.

​Now the question is,
how does one define
the complexity of a Human Being
with words that can't express all that is?

​The rest remains
a feeling.
