What makes your style stand out?

Bright colors, embracing history and breaking the boundaries of gender in an intentional way. Every piece I wear has a little story and every outfit I put together can be a play. I’ve found that people limit themselves by taking their style too serious and are concerned what other people think. I use my clothes to connect to others and help with my social anxiety. Fashion is my armor for every situation.

What’s your dream fashion moment?

My dream fashion moment is to be able to take part of a residency and make patterns for a fashion house. I dream of people able to clap for a collection I’ve helped make as it walks on the runway in fashion week.

What would you do with $20,000?

The 20,000 would be a great start to help me establish getting my masters and help me start my own alternative fashion brand that focuses on creativity, inclusivity and comfort for those with sensory issues.
