I was uploading writing samples to my website, and found out that I had been included in a year-end list on The Fashion Spot. My interview with Model Icon Julie Ordon was included in a list of the 10 best Articles of The Year.

I was watching ANTM randomly, and noticed that a model I had worked with last year was a contestant! Lexi, aka Alexia Tom. The editorial, the Country Girl, was published here: theMAGAZINE(ok) September 2009

This Fashion Week, I actually have show invitations! Have been running around since the 7th of September attending and covering shows. Photographs and stories were published in theMAGAZINE(ok) October 1st.

Went to the Blay Report's Blog Worthy Awards on August 24th, and spied a bag I was drooling over. The bag turned out to belong to Adrien Field, Vibe's Fashion Marketing Director. Long story short- I sent him a photo I took and he immediately posted it! See it here: The Field Notes

After a long, long wait (I had wanted to get them all retouched, but I can't wait any more!) I decided to finally put some fashion work up. This is all from 2009-2010, Chicago-New York, Location-Studio....Basically a little bit of everything. Click here to get straight to it.

After a long think, I realized that I wasn't showing work that I loved on this site. So instead of just focusing on frocks, I felt it was time to let all that other work come out to play.

Here are stories that I wrote and photo edited on when I interned at www.modacycle.com:

In September 2009 I started a monthly online zine called theMAGAZINE(ok). You can see all the issues at www.themagazineok.com.

In November 2009 I relocated from Chicago to New York. Yes!!! I became an intern at www.modacycle.com, photoediting and writing stories about designers like Yohji Yamamoto, Badgely Mischka, Peter Som, and newcomers Timo Weiland. By December I was promoted to Lifestyle Editor.

The new year bought a new (paid) position at www.fashionspot.com as a contributing writer. I look forward to the publication of my first piece, about blogger/photographer Anouck Bertin (photos by Garance Dore), as well as shooting a style story about New York Fashion Week.
