TOOFLY NYC

A week before I had to head back to Ecuador I landed a niiiiiiiice gig. Refinery29 hit me up to get involved on an adidas custom sneaker at project with 10 other women. I had a crazy schedule but I made it work. The mission to customize 5 pairs of Adidas UltraBoostX kicks inspired by 5 different states. My fave “New York City” – once the agreement was signed I scooped up a bunch of fresh new markers and got busy. Phase two of the project to shoot a video. Only two women artists were chosen! Check out the video link below. That day was cool I got to meet a team of folks involved that were really nice and liked the pupusas we ordered for lunch! That’s when you know folks are open to culture. The shoot went great, special shout out to my friend Sabrina who’s Brooklyn loft worked great for a Toofly Pop-Up Studio. Whew! She saved the day. I want to give a big thank you to the entire team involved, especially Rafael Jimenez for recommending me for this project. The shoot looks great, and you can now bid on your favorite custom Toofly kick on the link below. A silent auction supporting Women Win.
