As far back as I can remember, I’ve been fascinated with films and film making. I believe I caught the film bug around the age of 10 when my dad first let me use his 8mm camera to film some of our family “home movies”. Read more>>

I can confidently say today that fashion and writing were an accidental collision in my life. I knew from an early age (middle school, maybe?) that I wanted to write and I’m glad I quickly realized that math and science were not my destiny. Read more>>
