When he’s not working his STEM day job (she’s pretty and smart), Jake turns everyday finds into fabulous fashion statements. He started taking free sewing classes at a public library in Atlanta in 2020, and what began as simple alterations quickly blossomed into a passion for experimental, stylish designs.

Be sure to follow @haapihourpod to see how Jake transforms a dusty men’s blouse into a chic Danish top for moi.

Cheers 🍵, Melissa
