How did your love story begin?

It started one night through an app, nothing serious. But before I left his place, I saw the sewing machines and thought, wait… there’s more here. So we went on one date. Then another. And another. Now I’ve got keys to his apartment and somehow, this thing we never planned has become everything.

What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?

One of my favorite memories together is turning his living room into an atelier- fabric everywhere, music blasting, us sewing looks for a queer nightlife party he was hosting in Chicago. Working side by side on anything is always the best.

What would you do with $20,000?

With $20,000 we would be able to upgrade our tools and create a dedicated studio space, allowing us to push boundaries and create without limits. This money would fuel our craft and help bring loud, queer visions to life. It’s not just about making art- it’s about building a world that’s raw, bespoke, and entirely our own.
