My Passion & How I Inspire

My goal is to work in a very personal way with students. As an artist, I understand the impulses of creativity and the struggle that can be to get the results in the way you want it. I teach in a very logical way when it comes to basic principles of fashion, under the understanding that; one most be able to know the rules in order to create new ones after.
