I spent the 90s and early 2000's growing
up in the Philippines. That's where I first got interested in clothing.
I'd spend hours at my Grandpa's office learning all about fashion +
fabric. I saw all the work that went into a single garment and learned
to appreciate it. From designing to sampling to sewing to production, I
was exposed to everything and knew that every garment had a story.
As
I graduated to High School, I took a more active role in learning about
the production process. I started drawing and designing and eventually
found my way into the more technical aspects of production. In college I
started drafting my own patterns and sewing some of my own clothes.
Fast
forward to New York, 2009 when I first stumbled upon Etsy. I
immediately opened my first shop and started selling! When I made my
first sale, I was ecstatic! Someone thought my work was good enough to
pay for it!
Fast forward to San Francisco, 2013 and Etsy is now
my full time gig! I took what I learned from my past and have used it to
create my present. I sincerely hope you enjoy my designs and the
passion I put into each one of them! | | | | |
