Inspired by art, culture, fashion, textiles. I love music and dance and recently began taking piano lessons, a lifelong desire. I spent most of my career designing and directing product design in the Fashion Industry. I created a design company and retail store in Soho, NY early in my career. I've traveled the world for inspiration and fashion trends including the Asian and European textile markest. I love old things with a story. I'm passionate about historic architecture and served 5 years on the Landmarks Board in Yonkers NY. I'm a licensed real estate agent and love helping people move on and move in to create their sanctuary. I’ve taught onsite drawing classes at Untermyer Gardens, illustrated their future garden restoration plans and currently teach sewing instruction to children and adults at a studio in Mamaroneck.
