Born and raised in a small Wyoming town of about 8,000. Growing up, I found my love for people, places, and fast paced environments - which many found uncommon because of my small town roots.
I realized I had an attention to detail when I went on a camping trip at the age of 7. My aunt still cracks jokes at me for matching my outfits and accessories, while CAMPING. My love for fashion started in 2007 when I got into high school and I could never find clothes that fit my style or body type correctly. I always wanted to wear the latest trends and styles, but nothing looked quite right. I grew up in a seamstress household; knowing my mom could sew, I thought making clothes was going to be easy - boy was I wrong. Originally wanting to follow in the footsteps of the greats like Alexander McQueen, Vera Wang, and Karl Lagerfeld - I realized designing wasn't as much of a passion of mine as other aspects of the fashion industry are. I have fully immersed myself in a love affair for producing fashion shows and running social media accounts. While I am still trying to find my place in this crazy world, I am currently supervising college students, one day at a time at a college bookstore. |
