McKenzi (she/her) is a young educator who is excited to share her passion for sewing with future learners! After receiving a BA in Fashion Design from Arizona State University, she pursued a sewer career in New York City where she found herself working as a seamstress in luxury furniture making. However, after her many years as a Teachers Aid for college-level sewing classes, McKenzi decided teaching is her calling! With years of experience in many forms of sewing, including costuming and couture work, McKenzi is excited to share her knowledge, and explore new levels of creativity, with the next generation. One of her favorite ways to use her sewing skills is upcycling clothing, which focuses on recycling and repurposing textiles into something new! In addition to her wealth of sewing knowledge, McKenzi contributes vibrant and fun energy to the classroom with her hands-on, example based, teaching style.
