Mostly in my career, I have been responsible for designing full collections in menswear. ( i.e. tailored clothing, woven’s, knits and sweaters, outerwear, graphic design, and knits and bottoms). I have extensive knowledge in all these areas as well as a huge appreciation for them. I believe that my experience has allowed me to gain strong visual merchandising skills for putting together a cohesive collection to help in appearance, presentation, and sales. Visual merchandising and presentation to me, is very important to my personal design aesthetic. I believe that my background in working with all those elements has given me a perspective on quality control, design, and collaboration in putting together an overall outstanding product. It all started with me as a kid noticing how Ralph Lauren showed his clothing. It wasn’t just a sweater that he was selling, it was how you wore the sweater, and what you were wearing with it, and where you were wearing it at, as well as other factors that made the world around the “sweater” so much more appealing. That aesthetic has always stuck with me in creating a lifestyle experience for someone while just trying to sell a “sweater”.

I went to High School at A.W. Dreyfoos School of the Arts and then in higher education studied Fashion Design at Parsons School of Design. While I was at Parsons I worked as a Sales Representative/ Visual Merchandiser at Ralph Lauren’s Flagship store in New York City on Madison Ave as well as Worth Ave in Palm Beach. Working there showed me a great perspective of high-end retail and merchandising.

After Design school. I have had the opportunity to design for incredible Companies like Ralph Lauren, Calvin Klien, Victorionox, Nat Nast, Mountain Khakis, Southern Tide, New Era, Borgo 28, and others. I have always kept the same aesthetic. It’s not just one thing that you need to pay attention to and design. its everything around that one thing as well.

I also have done side work with my good friend Zoologist/TV personality Jarod Miller from “Jarod Miller’s Animal Exploration” on some productions for the “Today Show”, “Huffington Post”, “Fox and Friends”, “The Rachel Ray Show”, The NYC museum of natural history, and other public functions. I would handle a lot of the animals as well as I would help write and design some ideas for pilots that he is currently shopping out to select networks. Along with working with Jarod, I came to know Jack Hanna and other wildlife personalities and worked with them to learn more about different wildlife, habitats, and Preservation.

Animals and Wildlife, as well as Wildlife well-being and preservation, have always been near and dear to my heart. I will always continue to help out and support when needed.

I am also obsessed with my English bulldog Rocky, He is a handsome gentleman. He melts my heart every time he looks at me.
