I am a fashion designer with over 20 years of experience creating and styling swimwear "looks" for editorial and commercial print and electronic media projects.

My passion is being a part of a team that can successfully take a concept from idea to fruition, and has a great time doing it! I am nationally & internationally published. I have several magazine covers to my credit and countless tear-sheets.

Presently, my goal is to learn more about my craft to contribute more collaboratively towards publishing in the higher-caliber international hardcopy and digital magazines.
