I designed in the childrenswear industry for a number of years, and now I'm starting out on Etsy.com doing my own thing. My line is called Circus Dog Industries. Like my shop says, "It's a grandiose name for a little line made with love."

I'm a big fan of Japanese street fashion (stuff that goes beyond the US image of "Harajuku") so my designs have a quirky and playful influence.
