Creating is in my DNA.  At age five, I knew the visual world was my calling.  Throughout life and college, I tackled diverse studies spanning fine art, craft, and applied art disciplines.  I jumpstarted my professional design career in New York City, working for multi-disciplinary design firms and global home brands.  After honing my ability to lead product design teams over 16 years of experience, I decided to pursue a lifelong dream of building my own brand:  Dear Beni.  A culmination of my passion and experience, Dear Beni expressly reveals my Miami roots while challenging the status quo in design.  Regardless of venture, Material will always be my muse and Color my sidekick.  TBC!
