Life motto?
Try not to suck.
How does your job attire differ from your off-work wear?
My work style and real-life style are not much different, my nonwork clothes are just less dirty.
How is your style authentically you?
It is very much representative of my honesty with who I am and presenting that version of myself to people.
Best style purchase you’ve ever made and what makes it so great?
My gold (not real gold) vintage Casio watch. Even though I am often dressed in a T-shirt and cargo pants, the watch still makes me feel a little dressed up.

A mink stole that my granny gave me.
For daily garb, what’s on repeat?
My vintage Casio watch, and my black Levi's skinny jeans.
How does hair and/or makeup play into your get-ready routine?
I've recently started growing my hair out, so I'm still figuring that out. I don't wear makeup at work, and I only wear a little bit when I'm going places.
