I’ve been teaching fashion design for 20 years at Parsons: from Patternmaking, Draping and Sewing/Construction studios for 5 years, to 15 years of Portfolio Development and Presentation, Model Drawing Beginner – Advanced, Fashion Illustration, and Concept Development.
I’m an illustrator, sketch artist, technical designer, and TEACHER/GUIDER/MENTOR who is also a performing artist/musician (jazz and Brazilian) and passionate homeschooling mom.
CREATIVITY and LOVE are the foundations of everything I do.
