In her own words...."I would say my designs are elegant, feminine, classic with a modern flair, but at the same time with a progressive edge. Women of any age can wear my clothes. My desire is to design clothes that make women feel their best. I want to showcase clothing that really makes a woman feel good about herself. Whether she is on the dance floor, or walking on the streets of Paris or Chicago, I want to give the illusion of gliding because fashion is so entrenched in dancing for me. I also want to incorporate visual elements of color so that a woman can truly express herself."
Who or what inspires you?
From my background as a professional ballroom dancer, I have found inspiration from the movements of the body. I create designs that follow the contours of the body and accentuate the curves of a woman's body.
