About
With over 15 years of experience in the fashion industry as a fit model, background in dressmaking/seam-stressing and working as a designer; I bring innovative as well as fitted pieces to life for globally recognized brands and individual clients.
From creating initial conceptual drawings and renderings to driving optimal garment design and fit; I am well prepared to continue exceeding expectations in the fashion industry.
Highlights of my background include:
-Designing and developing garments over the past 8 years to individual clients (including wedding dress design, children’s clothing, etc.)
-Demonstrating expertise in draping, fabric/design, sketches, technical sketches, samples, fittings, alterations, and production.
-Earning a reputation for my knowledge in fit, garment construction, a steadfast commitment to produce a perfect fit, and a keen attention to detail.
-Experience with a company in all areas including (designer, production manager, technical designers and pattern makers) as well as daily communication with factories in China.
I have a solid educational foundation, back-round of work and a passion for fashion design. With my comprehensive experience in the fashion industry, coupled with my enthusiasm and dedication to achieving success, I believe I could swiftly surpass any expectations. -
