When did you realize you wanted to become a fashion designer? I realized I wanted to become a fashion designer my junior year of high school when I started cutting up jeans, making stuff for people in the neighborhood and from then on it's something that stayed with me and is meant to be.
What are some of your fashion goals? To be next African American woman to show at NY Fashion week, my clothes sold in stores around the world, my clothes worn on celebs, be universal and have a fashion studio/store/headquarters all in one, set in Philadelphia.
What does fashion mean to you? Fashion means everything to me, it's my life. It's fun, something I love doing! It's my art that's expressed through my clothes I put out.
What advice do you have for aspiring fashion designers? To always have a positive outlook on your dreams and goals. Stay with it, if your heart is truely passionate about it then that's all that matters. As long as you're happy doing what you love everything else will follow. Love what you do, do what you love! Learn the business side of fashion first, fashion comes second. Take baby steps.
