Summer feels like a distance memory with the seasons shifting and the temperatures dropping…but I do recall a particularly hot and humid day in late July when the incredible team from The Grace Tales came by for a visit. Grace Alyssa Kyo took a series of stunning photos of my son Max and I while the talented Meagan Camp helped organize and style our home.

We discussed everything from my grandparents raising me and their advice and influence, to growing up in Rhode Island and later moving to D.C. then New York. I also talked about my career path and how a job in fashion eventually evolved into a freelance career in trendspotting, design and creative strategy.

A main focal point of the interview was of course this new chapter called motherhood and how life has ebbed and flowed since Maximilian was born.
