What do you do for a living? If your not working, what do you WANNA do for a living? I work at a shoe store on the upper east side and also dance professionally with different dance companies around NYC and the country. Also I design and make men and women's clothing and want to pursue that full time starting in the next few months. What school did you go to and what for? I was home schooled through high-school and did a brief semester at Alvin Ailey on the fellowship program. Other than that anything I want to do, I figure out and teach myself through the process of trial and error while doing it :) Age? 23 for now If you had to wear one designer or fashion brand for the rest of your life, who would it be/ where would it be from? McQueen! I don't even care that it's avant garde all day everyday, actually Id prefer it!

What makes you get up in the morning? What are your life goals? My favorite thing in the world that keeps me going all day is laughing, so everyday I get pretty pumped to laugh an joke around with other people. And of course getting DRESSED :) What brought you to NYC since your not from here? Dance! And the pursuit of something larger than what my hometown was capable of giving me. Any routines or rituals to getting dressed for the day? Black mascara in the eyebrows. It's like a splash of cold water on the face, always makes me look and feel awake and on point. What gives you the most confidence when leaving the house? The perfect shoes or the perfect hair-do. Feeling like I look great without too much effort or thought, like I did overwork my clothes but just put something on and made it work wonderfully :)
