What's one thing that really inspires you and your work these days?
I am inspired by fashion, art, music and a combination of those things. I am a visual person so I like to absorb inspiration through images and everyday life. I try to pick up on certain colours, details and ideas while doing my own work.

What do you like to craft for yourself or for close friends and family only?
I am a wannabe knitter and I would like to one day finish my knitting projects and hopefully give them away to friends and family. I try to "craft" on my own because it's fun to do and make something that you're not used to.

What's your favorite thing about toronto?
My favourite thing about Toronto is it's love for coffee, coffee houses, cafe's whatever you want to call it. There seems to be a coffee boom in the city and I don't mind because I heart coffee.

How do you deal with cold, cold winter nights?
My down filled slippers, tea, ice cream, blankets and bad reality television.

Heart = organ or emotion?
Depends on what I am feeling that day.
