Hello Everyone, I have taught and trained myself on how to sew and design clothes for the past 38 years. I was born and raised in Long Island and Queens New York. My trade was a gift. I have never attended any schools to learn this trade; it was just something I did naturally. This is how I made a living when I left home at the age of 16. Slowly, it became a small business and everyone wanted a design by me. My specialty is leather, suede, and denim outfits. Then I started doing prom dresses and weddings. After a short period of time Hair Salons and Clubs wanted me to do Fashion Shows for them and this also gave me a lot of recognition. From all of the publicity that I received, newspapers and magazines wanted me to write a fashion column: The Point of View newspaper based in Wyanda
