<strong>Q:</strong> How did you get started in styling? <br/><strong>A:</strong> At the time, I was living upstate in Mt. Vernon, New York. I was the best-dressed kid in the neighborhood. Many of my friends looked up to me because I always had the latest gear. I had an advantage; I grew up shopping around New York City by tagging along with my aunts and grandmother. This advantage gave me the opportunity to be responsible for the neighborhood wardrobe. My friends would give me their money and I'd go shopping for them.

<strong>Q:</strong> What previous jobs and experiences have influenced your career? <br/><strong>A:</strong> My job was to go to school and stay fresh. My influence came from growing up watching the older folks around me dress up nice. This was the time that everyone was wearing tailor made two or three-piece suits with the hat and car to match. Seeing the older people in nice cars and with their wardrobe on point gave me the motivation to stay fresh as possible.<br>
