Style is dress-up for grownups—I switch moods daily, turning outfits into costumes that express, cheer, or let me play someone new.

What makes your style stand out?
I’m a true chameleon when it comes to style—constantly evolving, always unexpected. What sets me apart is my ability to seamlessly blend a variety of styles, creating looks that are bold, fresh, and uniquely mine. Every outfit is a reflection of my mood, my creativity, and my personality. I don’t follow trends—I remix them, making sure there’s always a signature touch of me in every detail. My style tells a story, and it’s never the same twice.
What’s your dream fashion moment?
My dream fashion moment is stepping into a room filled with the geniuses of fashion—designers, stylists, icons—surrounded by pure creativity and fearless self-expression. It’s about feeling completely confident in who I am and what I wear, knowing I belong in that space. I imagine walking into that room, not just seeing fashion, but seeing art come to life in every person. That energy, that vision, that environment—that’s the moment I dream of.
What would you do with $20,000?
With $20,000, I would finally give myself permission to evolve—to rebuild my wardrobe with intention, investing in high-quality pieces that reflect who I truly am. For years, I’ve had to put my personal style on the back burner. As a single mom balancing a demanding career in a conservative work environment, I’ve often had to blend in, prioritizing practicality over self-expression. But now, I’m ready for a rebirth. This investment would allow me to reconnect with me—the woman behind it all.
