LANGUAGES

Fluent in Spanish

Curious and open-minded, my background ranges from development work in Nicaragua to luxury fashion in New York City. My best work comes from chaotic ambiguity and simplifying the complex. My other loves are live music, watercolors, photography, and the woods. I'm continuously inspired by all the oddities, experiences, and genuine relationships the world has to offer. I'm hoping to collaborate with fellow out-of-the-box thinkers and dreamers who love what they do.
