ART DIRECTION
NIGHT AT THE BUDAPEST
Where old world grandeur meets avant-garde fantasy. A perfectly peculiar evening unfolded within the ornate walls of a grand ballroom — the kind of place where the wallpaper has opinions and the chandeliers keep score. Gilded ceilings, dramatic shadows, and looks that refuse to be forgotten.

CHICAGO SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA PRESENTS: THE RED THREAD, FASHION IN CONCERT.
This one-of-a-kind experience showcases Chicago’s emerging talent across diverse artistic disciplines. As each model graces the runway, their movements are accompanied by live music performed by Civic Orchestra of Chicago musicians, creating a captivating fusion of fashion and classical music. The Red Thread: Fashion in Concert proudly features four Chicago designers, each bringing a singular artistry and point of view shaped by this city. Distinct in voice yet connected by craft, storytelling, and intention, these designers represent the depth, talent, and creative power of Chicago fashion today.
There is an ancient belief that an unseen red thread binds us to one another, across time, distance, and circumstance. It cannot be seen, yet it shapes everything. The red thread appears where paths cross: in a shared room, a passing melody, a moment of recognition. It tightens and loosens, pulling us toward experiences, people, and ideas we didn't know we were seeking.

CHICAGO SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA PRESENTS: RENAISSANCE REMIX, A CLASSICAL MUSIC & FASHION EXPERIENCE
This one-of-a-kind experience showcases Chicago’s emerging talent across diverse artistic disciplines. As each model graces the runway, their movements are accompanied by live music performed by Civic Orchestra of Chicago musicians, creating a captivating fusion of fashion and classical music. Renaissance Remix seeks to bridge generational gaps and redefine the symphony experience, proving that, like fashion, classical music is adaptable, emotive and timelessly relevant.
Renaissance Remix is a fashion show that explores the profound duality of life, where beauty and pain coexist in the cycles of death and rebirth. Inspired by the historical parallels of the Dark Ages and the Renaissance, this show unfolds in two acts: Dark Ages and Renaissance, accompanied by the evocative strains of live strings.

SUMMER’S LAST STAND
The mourning widow of summer. This photoshoot was inspired by the “neither here nor there” moment of summer transitioning to fall. A breath that rises between each moment and is never seen again.

ICONIC COLLECTION 04 MAGAZINE HIGHLIGHT REEL
ICONIC COLLECTION 05 MAGAZINE HIGHLIGHT REEL
These videos were created for an award-winning magazine, The Iconic Collection. Featured on their homepage, and using video from Modern Luxury along with property footage from Brookfield Properties, I directed a video that set the tone for the site. The video moves through clients in the luxury brand space with a montage of what is to be anticipated when it is read through. I created the concept, design direction, and storyboard. With the help of video editors at StudioNow we were able to make my vision come to life.
STYLED MAGAZINE
Why do we wear the clothes we wear?
It stems from the basic idea that everyone is made up of different strengths, talents, and interests. Arising out of those strengths, talents, and interests is the human need to express one’s feelings, to make oneself known to others, and to the world-at-large, and to direct (to the extent possible) how one is perceived. Those with the steadiest grasp of who they are, with the inner-workings of their personalities and the affects it has on others, especially on how they are perceived, typically end up the most successful at fashioning an utterly unique one-of-a-kind true-to-oneself style that is inimitable. Fashion is a medium of self-reflection. It is also a tool of self-realization. Personal style of this magnitude proves that fashion—clothing and accessories—serves as a kindof codex, a reading into the hearts, mind, and soul of the wearer.
