After earning a BFA in Textile Design from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fitnyc.edu\/\">FIT<\/a>, she won a grant which funded a four-month trip to study lacemaking across over a dozen European countries. Upon returning to NYC, she co-founded <a href=\"https:\/\/www.brooklynlaceguild.com\/\">Brooklyn Lace Guild<\/a>, an organization dedicated to the preservation of making lace by hand. In 2018, she completed her MA in Costume Studies at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nyu.edu\/\">NYU<\/a> and began working as the Collections Specialist at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.metmuseum.org\/art\/libraries-and-research-centers\/antonio-ratti-textile-center-and-reference-library\">Antonio Ratti Textile Center <\/a>at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. She was commissioned to create special bobbin lace designs for the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg in 2018 and for the BGC exhibition Threads of Power: Lace in the Textilmuseum St. Gallen in 2022, as well as to create an experimental lace reconstruction for the EU-funded project Refashioning the Renaissance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/baltimore.impacthub.net\/\">Impact Hub Baltimore<\/a><\/strong><br>10 E.
