About Me
The nickname “warped mind” came from my master milliner teacher – Jan Wutkowski – as she was observing one of my creations in progress, she stated ‘ you have really warped mind’ 🙂

It illustrates my ability to perceive hats in the world that surrounds us and transforming all inspirations into funky twists in my designs. Each of my creations has movement. I’m happy when I create hats, and I hope this joyfulness comes through in my designs.

I grew up in Europe, wearing hats through winters and on special occasions. I forgot how much fun it was until I rediscovered it when I found myself in a pinch going to Kentucky Derby – nothing would fit my big head! I signed up for a class with Jan and found my groove – something that combines art and practicality. Finally, all my skills can be used in one place – painting, sculpting, sewing! I honed my craft through many classes including ones from Hat Academy and Millinery Meet Up. Those made me realize how small is the community of hat makers, and how mass production, present even in department stores, devalues the artistry of millinery. This is why, this year together with 2 extremely talented milliners- Andrea Blohm and Karen Morris, will be continuing the Millinery Meet Up – a unique millinery educational event. We aim to preserve craftsmanship and companionship and hopefully bring more awareness of this amazing profession.
