About

I am a fashion illustrator based on the US east coast combining my love for fashion and art through illustration and design, and specializing in all things custom. My purpose is to help bring your creative visions to life, whether that be through visual story telling, custom projects, or sketching live at an event.

Regardless if you’re getting something for your business or a personal piece, I’m bringing over 10 years of expertise, learning, and customer service to give you not only something beautiful that you will connect with, but also an amazing experience that is unique to you or your clients.

I hold a BFA in Fashion Design from Parsons New School for Design and studied evening wear and couture techniques. In design and/or illustration I have worked with amazing companies such as Louis Vuitton, Sareh Nouri, BOSS, Sephora, and more, in addition to sketching live at New York Fashion Week and Bridal Fashion Week.

My inspiration? Travel! The wanderlust is real and I love exploring the intricacies of new places and cultures around the world. I have bases in Washington DC, NYC, and Boston, but truly enjoy serving clients all over the US and world-wide. My personal values are the pillars of my brand; I believe love is love and have a passion for being able to create something special for everyone. I promote cultural diversity and women’s empowerment, striving to highlight and celebrate it throughout my work.
