AVI BINUR: MERCY GATE בָּרוּךְ הַשֵׁם
"Veronica 'Ivy' Kirzhner is a Jewish-Filipina who puts passion in anything she does, including her style. Of Filipino-Jewish origins, Ivy is born to a family of fashion designers. She wanted to stay along the lines of what the rest of her family was doing, yet still a little different, thus shoe design. She churns out hit collections worn by the likes of Charlize Theron and Jessica Simpson, to mention a few celebrities. Being a shoe designer is only one part of what makes Ivy so special. A multi-faceted creative explorer and an antiquarian, she immerses herself in different crafts, whether through her photos, writing, and music (she is currently recording an album)."
