I am a skilled artist in the field of sewing, often referred to as a sewist. With 15 years of sewing experience and a decade of expertise in the apparel industry, I bring a wealth of knowledge to my craft. Alongside being a wife and mother, I embrace the title of an artist.
In 2014, I graduated from Kent State University with a Fashion Design Degree, which has greatly influenced my creative journey. Aya, a name that signifies resourcefulness and endurance, perfectly encapsulates my approach to life and work. While I am proficient in creating various items, my passion lies in utilizing African Fabrics, giving them a unique touch.
I find beauty in simplicity, aiming for designs that not only serve a purpose but also possess remarkable end uses. My ultimate objective is to bring your visions to life or impart the skills necessary to bring them to fruition. Empowering creativity is at the core of my mission, whether it be through crafting custom clothing, providing alteration services, consulting for small fashion businesses, or hosting sewing workshops for youth, young adults, and aspiring creatives.
