What person or experience initially got you interested in pursuing your art?

Wow -my initial inspiration for becoming a stylist probably came from my childhood. I was taught by my mom and grandmother how to sew. I would pick out a fabric and a pattern and sew an outfit for a certain event. I always liked putting together an entire look.

How do you find inspiration to stay creatively fresh from project to project?

I have to do creative collaboration projects in between the paid projects to keep my passion. I love coming up with a concept and partnering with a team of other creatives – photographer, hair and makeup – to make it happen!
