What’s been one of your most memorable jobs?
"Just recently, the SayHelloMax team went down to L.A. to shoot House of Lies actress Dawn Olivieri for Fashionising. Everyone knew how to work efficiently and have fun at the same time, which gave the shoot great energy. The photos were so narrative — it gave that extra dimension that brought everything to life, and took each look to a point of timelessness."
What are your favorite local shops?
"Mira Mira in the Mission is one of the most beautifully curated shops you’ll find in San Francisco. I have a weakness for Australian labels and you will find plenty there. I also love Acrimony in Hayes Valley."
What's special about being a stylist in S.F., versus NYC or L.A.?
"The fashion community here is smaller, but more closely knit. A lot of us work outside of San Francisco, as well, but we all have a Northern California bond that’s pretty special."
