SPECIAL
REPORT
THE
LAUNCHING OF A.A.D. - ATHLETIC
ARTISTIC DEVELOPMENT
HONORING AN AFRICAN - AMERICAN
FASHION DESIGN ICON
Greetings Cyberstyle readers...I know its been a minute
since my last story and I hope all is well with you and
yours. As for me, I've been consumed with launching a
new company called A.A.D. - ATHLETIC ARTISTIC
DEVELOPMENT.
The concept, began about four years ago when my wife and
I were designing
clothes for CHERYL MILLER and then, we started doing
some interior design
work for her as well. At first, I thought the company
would be a joint venture involving Ms. Miller but
ultimately, I decided to make it happen alone...Cheryl
is, however, a super human-being! Essentially, A.A.D. is the first,
full - service
