My inspiration begins with the textiles themselves. I work primarily with discontinued upholstery fabrics sourced from mills around the world, each carrying its own personality through color, texture, scale, and pattern. Rather than imposing a design onto the material, I allow the fabric to guide the process. A bold motif may become the focal point of a handbag, while a subtle texture might inspire an unexpected detail or silhouette.

To complete each piece, I often incorporate unusual and dramatic hardware—including vintage-inspired cabinet pulls and architectural elements—that transform functional accessories into wearable works of art.

I am continually inspired by the challenge of transforming overlooked materials into something beautiful, functional, and lasting. By giving these textiles a second life, I create one-of-a-kind accessories that celebrate craftsmanship, sustainability, and individuality.
