My freshman year of high school at Platt I was luckily enough to take Textiles with Mrs. Van Fleet. She taught me how to use a sewing machine and my future took off from there. Also while in high school I worked with the drama club each year to help construct, organize and dress the performers for each play. All of these skills I still use on a daily basis for my career in Fashion.
