I Learned Early On In Teaching How Easy It Is To Hurt A Young Person And That's Never My Intention.

I Am A Stickler For Good Manners, And I Believe That Treating Other People Well Is A Lost Art. In The Workplace, At The Dinner Table, And Walking Down The Street--we Are Confronted With Choices On How To Treat People Nearly Every Waking Moment. Over Time These Choices Define Who We Are And Whether We Have A Lot Of Friends And Allies Or None.

I Had This Wonderful Career And Thought I Would Retire As A Teacher.

I Was A Teacher And An Administrator At Parson's School Of Design, And As An Administrator, I Was Associate Dean. And In That Role, I Went Around Fixing Things That Were Broken. And The Parson's Fashion Program Was Broken.so Fashion Chose Me. It Needed To Be Developed And Evolve. I Don't Know If It Comes Naturally To Anyone.

With Fashion, You Really Need To Understand The Aspects Of Construction. Not Just Design On An Ipad.
