My Story
Growing up
in rural Massachusetts, all I ever did and wanted to do was watch movies. Yet it never occurred to me, I should work in the movies, until I took an elective film class my first year at the University of Miami. During that fateful lecture on blockbuster movie producers, the proverbial lightbulb came on. I graduated with a degree in motion pictures and found my way into the industry, on a mission to become a big time movie producer.
Working on
various productions over the years, I got a taste of the many departments it takes to make a movie or TV show. An unexpected fork in the road appeared while working my first job in the wardrobe department. You see, I had long been a quiet admirer of fashion, but like many always felt excluded from it. Being brought into that world via filmmaking was wildly serendipitous, as it leveled up my fascination with and participation in fashion.
What strikes me
most about working in wardrobe is how essential clothing is to an actor's confidence in a role. I took this to heart and started exploring my personal style, and the more I learned, the more value I saw in sharing it with others. So, translating my unique skill set and knowledge, I began a new mission: to help busy professionals find empowerment in their personal style and curate a balanced wardrobe.
My Core Values
Empowerment
I truly believe that if we use our strengths to lift up others to find and use their own strengths, we can all succeed and make the world a better place. For me, helping someone look and feel their best can have a direct, positive impact on how they show up in the world, because when we feel good, we find more abundance and happiness in our lives. If I can give someone that gift, my cup will be full.
Balance
We all crave to find balance in our lives more than ever before. It’s especially difficult when we’re constantly accosted by marketing in all its duplicitous forms. We are conditioned to always be wanting. With my business I aim to change that by making thoughtful purchases, teaching good habits, and using eco-friendly practices. Our goal is to filter out all the noise and find a healthy balance between need and want.
