In 2009, Korto realized one of her dreams as she actually lived it on Bravo's Project Runway. Working on the show, Korto blossomed and enjoyed the support from loyal fans when she won the Fan's Favorite Award.

Welcome to Doodle 4 Google, a competition where we invite K-12 students to work their artistic will upon our homepage logo. At Google we believe in thinking big and dreaming big, so this year we're inviting U.S. kids to exercise their creative imaginations around the theme, "If I Could Do Anything, I Would …"

We're looking forward to the kids' answers too. Gather those art supplies and some 8.5" x 11"paper and encourage your students to enrich us all with their creative visions for what they would do in the world, if they could do anything.
