I have had a passion for fashion since I was a young girl.  My first sewing project was ​a halter top - just a simple triangle shape with a casing for a drawcord around the neck.  When I was in high school I made two fully lined suits which I wore with pride among my flare jean classmates. I designed and constructed all garments for my wedding party including my wedding dress, bridesmaid dresses and groom and best man suits.

After graduating with a degree in Apparel Design and Fashion Marketing. I went to work in the Seattle area apparel industry. I have over 20 years experience in the custom apparel industry.  My background includes working for retailers such as Eddie Bauer, Cutter and Buck , Nordstrom, and Tommy Bahama.  I have also worked for smaller private label suppliers and start ups.
