Stylist & Creative director

Raised in Virginia Beach, my love for the ocean and motion has always inspired my approach to creativity. With a degree in Fashion Merchandising from VCU, I’ve cultivated a deep understanding of the art and strategy behind fashion, embracing its transformative power to weave stories. My passion lies in the alchemy of clothing and color—tools that breathe life into characters and narratives, evoking emotions that linger. Through diverse projects, I’ve honed an intuitive eye for crafting campaigns that resonate, threading together themes of nature, nostalgia, and connection to create visual experiences that feel both intimate and timeless.

Rooted in a love for storytelling and a flair for leading creative teams, my work blends fresh perspectives with a bold embrace of vibrant color, infusing each project with a sense of home and humanity.

Work Experience

ink magazine editor-in-Chief

Since August 2024, I have served as Editor-in-Chief of Ink Magazine. Currently, I am overseeing the production of our upcoming spring issue while organizing an engaging release party to celebrate its debut.

Fashion director & Stylist

Before becoming Editor-in-Chief, I led Ink Magazine's Fashion Committee, overseeing stylists and writers. During this time, I successfully executed the annual model call and art sale and worked as a stylist on various projects, including a short film.

Banquet server

I bring my keen eye for detail and design to my work as a banquet server, where I help create visually stunning and seamless event experiences. Much like fashion, setting up for events like weddings requires a strong sense of coordination, aesthetics, and storytelling to bring a vision to life.
