I am driven by the curiosity to seek out and understand the hidden potentials of nature, culture and material as seen through sustainable impact.

Originally born and raised in Portland, Oregon. I graduated with a BFA from Otis College of Art & Design with a focus in menswear. In 2016, I launched a contemporary fashion lifestyle brand focusing on natural materials including leather and silk. In our first year, we were featured in the Fall Fashion issue of Portland Monthly Magazine, as well as a 3 month summer lookbook campaign for Vanity Fair UK. As a designer with more than 10 years of experience, I have created and produced leather handbags and apparel, activewear, bridal collections, footwear and upholstery. I have experience in interior design and producing photoshoots, creative events, fashion shows and more. I'm always developing original products that are inspired by my daily life and the people closest to me. WHen im not working, You can find me working in my garden, renovating my house, adventuring in the Oregon wilderness, or playing with raw materials in my design studio … usually accompanied by my partner, daughter and our two kittens.

As a child I watched my parents design, build and create the world around us … their inspiration was an example of the value of creativity, functionality as beauty and collaborative effort.
