I HAVE ALWAYS APPRECIATED THE ART OF STORYTELLING. HERE I HAVE APPLIED MY RANGE OF SKILLS TO PRESENT A PORTFOLIO OF MY STYLE AND CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE ART AND DESIGN COMMUNITY. FOCUSING ON FOUR PROJECTS, ROTT© RECORDS, PULL UP AND EAT, DREAMS & NIGHTMARES, CONNECT. THREE OF THESE PROJECTS HAVE BEEN THE INSPIRATION FOR APPAREL COLLECTIONS AND HAVE BEEN USED IN SEASONS AND CAPSULE COLLECTIONS.
ROTT© RECORDS IS THE MONIKER USED FOR MUSIC RELATED RELEASES, EVENTS, NIGHTLIFE.
