01
I am a passionate, decisive and ambitious student currently studying fashion business management at the the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City, NY. By pairing my dedication to sustainability with my skills for garment construction and ideation, I achieve my goals with a unique mindfulness. My inquisitive, compassionate nature makes me an innovative thinker and successful designer. I constantly seek out opportunities to apply my abilities and work with others!
Ultimately, I aim to inspire an environmentally-friendly mindset in others through my work.

Before embarking on my AAS partnership program at FIT, I studied textiles & fashion design with a certificate in sustainability at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. As a Fashion and Sustainability Lead for The Vault, a prominent design and business club on campus, I have hosted several workshops and educational events to inform others about the importance of prioritizing the environment in the garment industry—and the many ways it's possible.
My projects include experimenting with upcycled fabrics, naturally-woven dyes, or the simple practice of creating art where once one saw something to discard.
03
I’ve studied abroad at the Santa-Reparata International School of Art in Florence, Italy, and interned for the Florentine brand Antonina Poppy and the London-based Arddun Agency for Paris Fashion Week. I have several years of experience in sewn construction, textile identification, and technical design mapping.
My looks have been formally presented in several fashion shows, college exhibits, and galleries.
