A typical day in my life includes…
checking trends, sewing, long distance running, emails.
I was born in…
Scranton, PA 1988.
My favorite thing about Arizona…
is the energy. The youth really know how to shake one loose down there.
I’m listening to…
OFFSET FEATURES on TIDAL.
My family is…
the best family ever made. Nothing but love and you can really see the love of christ in each one of them.
If I could have dinner with anyone, it would be…
Malcolm X.
One thing I cannot live without is…
my beard. Everytime i shave i feel like a small part of me dies. I did it once since I’ve gotten out of the Marine Corps and i vow never to do it again. I’ve literally turned down jobs because they wanted me to shave.
When I was younger, I wanted to be…
a world renowned artist.
I’m inspired by…
my peers. I’ve learned the craft of fashion with them. Each of them are talented in so many ways and i’ve learned a great deal from them.
The one person who motivates me is…
myself. I wake up and I’m on fire. Being my own worst critic has brought me to the level I am currently. I see obstacles and attack them.
The perfect day would be…
a day in Austin, TX with my friends (preferably during SXSW) where we would go see all of our favorite artists, eat good food, drink great drinks, play some jenga, and party until the sun came out. Wash, rinse, repeat for 5 days or so.
My first job was…
the United States Marine Corps….RAH.
My favorite escape…
might have to be Scotland. I spent a weekend in a castle in Edinburgh once….time of my life.
My life is…
a rollercoaster that keeps going up.
Alway…
stay humble.
Never…
let anyone or anything else define who you are.
Favorite Quote…
“On a good day, I’m okay. On a bad day, I’m okay”- Wall Street
Biggest Dream…
to be appreciated for what i gave to the world.
My Pet Peeve…
when people tell me what I should be making. If you have that idea you should make that. That’s what I did.
