Ilyssa Pachao
Hi! My name is Ilyssa Pachao, and I recently graduated from Appalachian State’s Apparel Design and Merchandising program with a minor in Theatre Arts. While in school, I developed a love for teaching when I worked as a TA for apparel pattern making and teaching various outdoor recreational sports. In my art, I like to focus on using second-hand materials, natural dyeing, and telling stories through garments.
