    I am a creative and hardworking Fashion Designer with 7 years of experience, with a love for the fashion industry and all things that bring out my passion for the creative. I have proven track record of my ability to develop concept sketches and design research/ideas into actual marketable and mass produced designs. I am extremely skilled in hand and computer flat sketching as well as fashion figure Illustration. I am very knowledgeable in fabric fit analysis, construction, and color story direction.

    I take an energetic and pragmatic approach to design, keeping an open mind and adaptable attitude to the fast paced nature of the industry, whilst keeping my thought processes dynamic and realistic to get to the final product. My perspective towards design and business comes from a place of wanting to discover the "why" and how to improve systems and turnaround time. Beyond creativity, I am business minded and logical. I not only focus on the creative and design side, but on how to execute intelligently and efficiently in a streamlined manner. Fashion requires both the right and left hemispheres of the brain - to be successful, one must be able to adhere quickly to the industry's ever-changing demands, while having the foresight for the next step once demands are met.
