Illegal Mezcal
With Illegal Mezcal we transformed branded T-shirts into up-cycled tote bags for attendees during Ciara’s artist talk and mini-performance celebrating her new album, ‘CiCi’ at Soho House. Each tote was created live, on-site, using sustainable design processes to turn event merchandise into a memorable, functional keepsake.
The activation sparked conversations about circularity, brand responsibility, and how up-cycling can create deeper, longer-lasting brand impressions beyond the event itself.

“This Is A Great Way To Keep Illegal Mezcal On My Mind After The Event. I’ll Definitely Be Checking Them Out…I Didn’t Even Know The Drinks Were By Them Until I Saw What You Were Doing!”

Cooper Hewitt
With Cooper Hewitt, Smithsonian Design Museum I facilitated a sustainable textile workshop that engaged participants through an educational introduction on textiles, the environment, and community.
Each workshop guides participants through a process of regenerative textile artistry that results in a tangible takeaway.

At Gap Inc. I partnered to facilitate a hands-on team-building workshop demonstrating how to transform old GAP denim, including employees’ personal denim into handmade paper.
The workshop emphasized sustainability, circularity, resilience, and historical awareness, while creating a warm, collaborative environment where employees could socialize, learn, and reflect.
