About Ana:
After earning her Bachelor's Degree in Fine Art (not Fashion! LOL) from the University of California Santa Cruz, Ana started taking fashion classes at various community colleges. She landed a design internship for a contemporary women's clothing brand in 2010, which marked the beginning of her journey in the fashion industry. In 2019, she launched her freelance patternmaking business, Stitches and Sketches Patternmaking, which has been thriving ever since. When she's not working, she enjoys attending concerts, dyeing her hair fun colors, and cuddling with her cats.
