The Dark and Mysterious... Obscure Fashion About 12 years ago I was working for a radio station we started promoting, this turned into modeling and getting more familiar with being behind the camera. From my first photoshoot it was edgy and punk rock on the wall was the quote “often imitated never duplicated”. This was the beginning.

and I do not know when to quit.but in the journey yes you get sad you get motivated or despondent but just like a painting sometimes these feelings give you ideas, its such an important outlet.

No one really, I waned to be the inspiration… I wanted to bring something different to this city. I find inspiration through music and art… or experiences ,what they bring you and how they make you feel. This is what really fuels, true emotion, true capture, art. When I started years ago when I was asked to get in front of the camera I felt I transformed, I wore my emotion on my face, my passion. modeling came natrally, I am now able to bring that threw to any audition or any runway. From being a model brining what I can to the table to now designing calling the shots and creating the vision. Over the years I have gone from commercial modeling runway to background work to to music videos to fashion shows and helping to coordinate them this had led me to the fashion industry, I saw as a new beginning why not take my ideas further. I have always bin an artist, Im a visionary, anything I do its with passion. I pour my heart into what I do
