Pin Ups in the News

Pinup style and culture fascinated me for many years before I became brave enough to dive in, and now I’m so grateful I did. Additionally, modeling has opened up a new avenue of creativity to explore as an artist. I love crafting looks, sewing and altering clothes, playing with trying to perfect new makeup looks, and collaborating with other inspiring creatives.
