ROOTS IN THE FASHION INDUSTRY

Born in Manhattan, New York. I was introduced to the fashion industry by my mother, who worked in the field. While growing up, she often dressed me in outfits she found visually striking.

My mother had fantastic attention to detail and was never afraid to mix colors. This exposure shaped my appreciation for aesthetics and sparked my own interest in fashion. It may sound cliché, but I consider myself a "color creative." In my own definition, a color creative is someone who can blend colors in a visually appealing way — whether by drawing the eye or expressing a unique sense of identity and style.

I picked up photography during my freshman year of college (sept 2025) and started my fashion portfolio with a point-and-shoot camera.

Aside from photography and fashion, I enjoy lifting, spending time with God, and listening to R&B music.
