I credit my worldly aesthetic and love for design to how I grew up. A first generation American born to West Indian parents, who were each pioneers in their own respective families, has inspired and instilled in me a love for travel and a fine appreciation for people and their culture from an early age. Not to mention loving to spend time with and learn from the most creative person I've ever known, my grandmother who was a designer of all things...hats, flower arrangements, clothes and interiors.
