I Think When You Start Talking About Money, It Stops The Whole Creative Process For Me.

I'm Half-japanese, So I Collect Toys, Like A Yayoi Kusama Stuffed Pumpkin.

There Are So Many Young Designers Who Need Stock, Who Need My Push. With The Commerce, The One Thing I Knew Is That I Wanted To Have Things That Were Affordable. I Was Always One Of Those Customers That Would Go To An Amazing Store And Be Like, "um, What's The Least Expensive Thing?"

I Like Places Where You Can Dance To Crazy Music, Like Bedlam Or Eastern Bloc In The East Village.

I'm Not A Designer, I'm A Creator.
