Raising three kids meant ...I really relate to this! Raising three kids meant that I had to work with my hubby of 33 yrs. in his janitorial company, instead of going full throttle for my dreams of being a fashion designer. With all the paperwork and payroll duties, running a household and filling in for our employees when sick, I had little time to design and create my fantasy couture! I even taught Spanish at the local elementary school and volunteered often at school and church. But, I kept dreaming and today I am launching my couture business and doing runways and gaining some notoriety for my novel designs! This has been thrilling and all the more sweet, as if fulfilling a long-awaited passion! My collections are found at www.j-nacustomgsb.com as well as my bio! Several magazines have published my work and bio, as I went up in flames when I was six, and the massive scarring led me to sew and dream up beautiful clothes to compensate for my fragile self-esteem and great shame of my disfigurement. This drive to feel beautiful led me on my quest to be a designer. I am THRILLED to say that dreams can come true if we hold to them tightly!
