EARLY FASHION MEMORY

I was 11 years old when I went with my mom into the Burberry boutique. Everyone knew her by name. They had snacks and drinks for us, made us feel super special, and brought out their most beautiful pieces. I loved the experience.

YOUR APPROACH

I want to challenge my clients to break out of their comfort zone and try new and daring things. I love an edgy, fresh look.

STYLE ICON

Mexican Superstar Paulina Rubio. Growing up, I watched her mix and match designer couture with everyday pieces, which ultimately create unique personal style.
