Originally from the Hudson Valley of upstate New York, he moved to Manhattan in 2006 to attend The Fashion Institute of Technology and has been there ever since. Having thoroughly explored the city and everything it has to offer he finally settled down in the East Village, where he draws inspiration for many of his pieces. With over 10 years of experience sewing, quilting and crafting, he is finally pursuing his dream of teaching, writing patterns, designing fabric and creating fiber art to share his unique perspective with the rest of the world.
