I am a Minneapolis based designer. I learned to sew when I was 8 from my grandmother. After high school I went to the Illinois Institute of Art - Chicago for a degree in fashion design. In my last year I moved to New York for an internship and stayed after graduating. I worked for a few big fashion companies, like Ralph Lauren and Coach. After 9 years in New York I decided to move back to Minnesota and start my own brand. I design and sew each piece myself.
