Modernist.  Humorist.  Creative Enthusiast.

Born and raised in Texas, I mastered the art of "keeping up appearances" at a very early age.  Memories of shopping with my mom and grandmother flood my mind as I recall critiquing the fit of a Chanel blazer in the Downtown Dallas Neiman Marcus at 8 years old.  Having strong convictions on dress, I studied fashion while emphasizing on merchandising and product development.  After graduation, I found the transistion from the selling floor to "behind the scenes" to be very natural.  The entire retail operation is second nature to me; from branding, to marketing, to social media to visual presentation.  While working as an apparel buyer for a local retailer, I led the store's e-commerce re-launch with an organized and brand appropriate website.  I'm always looking at the BIG PICTURE and enjoy contributing where I can.  I work well with teams and love creative collaborations.  When I'm not working, you can find me stomping around Chicago's Pilsen neighborhood with my pet chihuahua, Tank.
