MY STORY
I'm sure you've heard amazing stories about success after
tragic failure. Well, that's not my story. I think my story is more fascinating,
but then again, I have done everything and more that I had hoped to accomplish
in life and I just turned 42!
I began my design career at age 5 when I learned how to sew,
made things and sold them at my lemonade stand. Fast forward 16 years. I move
to NYC to attend the Fashion Institute of Technology and get my specialization
in intimate apparel (or as everyone knows this: lingerie design). Below is my
graduation fashion show piece photographed on one of the first digital cameras
- no joke. It was 1999. I didn't even own a computer, let alone a cell phone.
