At the age of ten, my mother taught me to sketch. I read fashion magazines and books and watched fashion shows on TV. I started to realize early on that sketches from my imagination had that potential to come to life. Throughout my high-school years, and later in college, I continued drawing and illustrating daily. It was then when I knew that one day I would become a designer. 

​

Upon graduating with Honors from Suffolk University with a BSBA in International Business, I studied, interned and worked two jobs to attain a degree from Parsons School of Design in Fashion Studies. I've always believed in hard work, and in my career it has really paid off. I've been fortunate to have bosses, mentors, and colleagues who share the same beliefs and have encouraged me along my fashion journey.

 

As a result, I'm now a results-driven leader with over 20 years experience in the fashion industry. I have achieved great business success in overseeing womenswear designs in various categories. I possess a background in the seasonal translation of trends for specific brands to maximize sales. Specializing in premium products with an exceptional eye for print, color, quality, and detail, I'm known for building and inspiring creative design teams that produce strong financial results.
