Teaches at Alexandria Wills Studio

I began my business in 2014 making custom jewelry, clothing, handbags, shoes, and just about anything I could think of. Most of what I made was an experiment and expression of my personality ( I just like making things). Not long after, I began selling my work in local stores, craft fairs and online. My favorite thing to do was attend craft shows where I could meet other amazing makers, musicians, and fashionistas. 

After 6 months I opened up a studio with Sin Clarity Clothing in the Flat Iron Arts Building of Wicker Park, Chicago. We had great fun throwing events and sharing our skills. Together, we started an event company with a bunch of other talented local artists within the Chicago maker community.

After a great interest in continuing my education in shoe making I decided to pack up and leave for New York City to study shoe making with a collective of shoemakers in Brooklyn. There I studied, practiced, and honed my skills in every style of shoe I could think of. I applied my interests of sailing, hiking, and biking to my designs. Pretty soon I was teaching shoe making and selling custom shoes in New York City, Chicago & beyond.
