Art and fashion have always been such a huge influence in my life.

Whether that be modeling, styling, doing photo shoots, or lending

my keen eye for aesthetics- wearing various different hats and

becoming a jack-of-all-trades seems to be a path I’m on. If you were to ask

me what I want to do, who I want to be, I’d probably stare back at you with

a blank expression. The simplest answer to that would be a creative director

(or a human disaster, if you will). I’ve always envisioned myself being

my own boss— cliché, I know. Owning a brand where I’m

able to dictate my own rules, set my own standards, and

not have anyone or anything undermine what it is I

create would be ideal. When I think back to all that

I’ve done at this point, it's clear that a creative of

some sort is what I’m gearing up to be. Funny

thing is, I still have no clue. I guess when you

have so many interests you don’t know where

exactly to begin. It’s not that I don’t have

goals, aspirations, or even resolutions (and

granted it sounds a lot darker than it

actually is) but, the truth of the matter is

that being in this free-flowing state has

been the best thing yet. Living in a

world where things have become

so unpredictable, it’s almost

mandatory for you to priorize

yourself. Taking the time to master your

craft while also having the flexibility to go in

any and all directions. I draw my biggest

inspirations from badass, strong women,

such as Lady Gaga and Nadia Lee Cohen.

I admire how they’re able to find this

liminal space in which they can

bring their vision to life. A space in

which they walk the fine line

between evolving and realizing

that the current version of them

selves is the vessel for channeling

their inner creative genius.

Becoming a visionary.
