What do you do? Nine to 5 I'm an art teacher but after hours I'm a mom, a writer and an eco-friendly handbag designer/owner of the online ecotique, LATRICE. I design super cute handmade and eco-friendly handbags and accessories that are made from reusable items and organic materials. It's feel good fashion knowing that your doing some good for the environment by reusing what is already here. I absolutely LOVE what I do and I wish I could do this job full-time.
What inspires you? Nature, art, color, interior design, fashion books, blogs, vintage stores, worthy causes, do-gooders :), butterflies, quotes, positive attitudes, happy people, smiles and laughter!Why are you FLY? I spent over half of my 32 years trying to find myself and when I finally did I spent the rest of my years trying to repair the damage! But I'm here and I'm "FLYbulous." I always try to treat people the way that I would like to be treated, put God first and try not to sweat the small stuff. I give back to worthy causes and try to do at least one good deed a day. I'm not just good at one thing, I'm great at MANY things. Every one has a purpose in this world and I want to leave it knowing that I found mine and I made a difference!!
Advice: "Whatever you are from nature, keep to it, never desert your own line of talent. Be what nature intended you for and you will succeed, be anything else and you will be ten times worse than nothing." ~Sydney Smith~
