Finally Over.

My 4 years at FIT just ended today with my senior collection class pizza party. We got our professor a huge bouquet of flowers.

My last week of school had been more than tough. I'm just really happy that i was able to finish through strongly without giving up. Lost someone very influential and important in my life, but I'm not ready to throw away all my efforts to mourn and become a vegetable.

A new chapter in my life is just beginning.

so many changes. everything different. everything I knew is gone.

I need time, but the world won't sit around and wait for me.

My family needs my support. They need me to keep them sane.

so for now... I need to keep what wants to come out inside my closet, and lock it away.

if I neglect it, it'll have no choice but decompose.

Dressed to Kilt is a celebrity filled fashion runway event hosted by Sir Sean Connery to kick start Scottish "Tartan Week" here in New York CIty. It was held this year at club M2.
My winning design from the FIT contest held by Scottish Textiles Group was one of the looks down the runway!

more Press for Scottish Contest

Last month in March I was able to get 1st place in the Scottish Developmental Contest-by the Scottish textile mills.
I showed my winning garment down the "Dress to Kilt" fashion show hosted by Sir Sean Connery to kick start Scottish week in NYC.
A follow-up interview is now being scheduled with the journalist for probably and most likely May 11th.
Very Excited at the moment.
