2. What inspired you to pursue this creative endeavor?

I always had a passion for business and for the arts, specifically with fiber art. When I graduated from college, I wanted to combine the two and create my own accessories brand.  Seeing my father establish his career in the US inspired me to pursue my dreams as well.

3. What is your favorite part of your creative job?

My favorite part of my job is designing up a new collection!

4. What role does your Latino roots have in your success?

My designs are inspired by the art and culture of Peru. As a first-generation American, I find it important to thoughtfully combine traditional elements of my Peruvian heritage with modern style to offer my customers high-quality knitwear that is not just another accessory but a work of art.

Never give up on your dreams. Always be passionate, and love what you do!
