Clothing is about connection to our ancestors, the humanity we experience daily and the connection we have to our personal selves. It is about having fun with its many contradictions while appreciating the magic it creates and the comfort it can bring.

Each day I need to breathe a moment of beauty and calm. This practice of mindfulness creates balance and openness and invites in many forms of creativity. One form of creativity that has had a long standing resonance with me is the mystery and intrigue of clothing.

Whether learning by conventional methods or otherwise, I believe that ideas happen when one is doing, active in the pursuit. The beautiful human form, nature, street life, and works in progress are sources of inspiration. I believe knowledge, experimentation and the ability to grow and change bring forth awareness and the self confidence to become what we imagine and dream.
