Welcome to my pictorial blog. I document my adventures in travel, style, art, and food. Hope you have a nice stay!
My first atelier in Philadelphia, 1991 and Paris, 1998
I grew up in a large family and an art filled environment. My Mom encouraged us at an early age to realize our natural gifts and talents, and work on being the best at them. I was very good at drawing and sewing and I had a love for all things, “Paris Chic”... I would stay up late working on designs and sketches, or reading about fashion history and my favorite designers in magazines. I knew I wanted to be a fashion designer. I received a lot of support and mentoring from love ones and friends to help me pursue my dream...
After getting my degree in Fashion Design, I established a couture atelier to design custom fit clothing and creative wardrobe for individual lifestyles. I taught a variety of fashion courses at Temple University and Moore College of Art and Design.
Bachelor of Fine Arts in Fashion Design at Moore College of Art and Design.
Moore College of Art and Design 2013 Distinguished Alumni.
Master of Science in Arts Administration & Museum Leadership at Drexel University.
