About

Growing up, pursuing a career in fashion felt more like a day dream than a tangible goal. While I didn't know how to start, I never let that stop me from trying.

 

Despite countless rejections, I eventually found my momentum. After nearly five years at my dream job, John Elliott, I moved on to start With A Beginner's Mind.

 

WABM was founded in 2020 and is my medium to story tell life experiences through clothing. My designs emphasize modern tailoring, premium fabric, and function. I believe that thoughtful, well designed garments can be incorporated into anyone's wardrobe. 

 

I hope that when you see my work and read my thoughts, you're inspired to seek gratitude, practice mindfulness, and embrace a learning mindset.
