About Me

Originally from the Cheyenne River Sioux (Lakota) Nation. In addition to Fancy/Grass Dancing at powwow's, by age thirteen, I had begun to bead and sew and was designing full costumes by 16. After working in the fashion industry in Las Vegas for a few years, I have relocated to New York City to Design!. Admist working at Roberto Cavalli in New York.....I have started a T-shirt line "Urban Indian of America" with Jana. I recently designed the clothes jana wore in her first music video. One leather mini dress, two tank tops, one caftan dress, one native pitfire top, three sets of tops and bottoms for her, and her dancers...watch the video below. My greatest accomplishment to date was designing the gown jana wore to the grammys. It took me five fittings and 100 hours of beadwork to finish this gown.
