My Roots
I grew up in New Hampshire, spending my childhood on a lake where most days were filled with swimming, exploring, and creating outdoors. My early years were defined by freedom to learn through curiosity and hands-on projects. Much of that time was spent crafting and collecting, piecing together small ideas with paper, fabric, and found materials. When I was ten, my family moved to Virginia, where I discovered new ways to express creativity and eventually pursued a degree in Fashion Merchandising at Virginia Commonwealth University. Those early experiences still shape how I approach design today, with a deep appreciation for process, place, and the act of making.
