Summary
To create a foundation that allows myself to thrive using my skill set of art & design.
Throughout my career as a silhouette design specialist, I have honed my craft and developed a deep appreciation for the artistry involved in clothing design and construction.
I believe that sewing is not only a practical skill but also a powerful means of self-expression. My goal is to empower young learners to explore their creativity while developing valuable life skills.
