About
I was born in the mountains, raised in a desert, studied and worked in an island and now I reside in Vancouver.
​
I knew that I wanted to be surrounded by wool when I grew up. While visiting a sheep farm in Malta in 1999, I wore a woollen 7 gauge sweater so new, that it still held the heat from the machines.
​
My life of travelling allowed me to learn traditional design processes from all over, ranging from the Tibetan Buddhist monasteries to the pre-colonial block printing communities.
​
After earning my BFA in Fashion Design and later Associates in Menswear, I had the opportunity to work in both industries in New York.
​
The medical supply shortage during the pandemic inspired me to create a circular medical level 2 isolation gown which fits sizes between 2.5%tile of female sizing and 97.5%tile male sizing as a part of my final thesis in the Technical Apparel Programme at the Kwantlen Polytechnic University, British Columbia.
​
I now work as a product developer and designer at the State of Underdress, Vancouver.
