About me

Hello my name is Mitzi. Most of the times I tend to spell my name with a ‘y’ simply because it gives a different look to my name, but most of all because I like the unique ways of what I’m really like. Fashion has always been a field of interest to me which was an inspiration from a Mexican fashion designer back when I was in 3^rd grade. The idea of one day being the owner of a famous fashion line and brand amused me. The dreams of that 3^rd grader started to develop even more when I realized I was good at sketching. Not only did I know I was good at sketching but I knew that it would be a great business opportunity. In the future actually developing my own line, having my own business and being my own boss is what I loved the most out of this dream. Slowly but surely a fact is what I tend to become.

I believe I am a dreamer. Only dreams is what it may sound like at this point but I’m the type of person who believes that we can make any dream come true… if we’re willing to work hard enough to get it. That is what I am doing; working hard to pursue what once was a dream and now a reality.in other words if we can believe it and conceive it, we can achieve it! The fashion industry is a fast growing industry. Fashion is non-stop creativity and ideas mixed of various more ideas. and it better get ready for me!!!
