  • Education
    • Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising
      2000 - 2003
      I worked here as the bookstore manager. I was extremely lucky to have learned all the things I did while I was here (from all the great resources available at the school everyday, to the highly skilled professionals and the wealth of their knowledge they shared with me everyday). Afterwards I took all of my knowledge and applied it to a job in the industry.

    • Freelance/Temp Design
      LA Premium Denim Co's
      Apr 2006 - Jul 2008 (2 years 3 months)
      Worked with several different companies:

      Denim of Virtue
      The company had just started and needed help with merchandising. I helped name the company and decide on the overall look of the brand. In doing all of this, I developed washes, fits, trims and branding. Worked with the Head of Sales to provide trend current samples for major trade shows.

      Cosa Nostra
      The head designer was on Project Runway and needed someone to assist with his line while he was away. This job changed everything for me and made me realize that fitting-in to stupid trends is not always necessary.

      Evisu Goes Hollywood
      After AG Jeans I went to work for Adriano Goldshmied himself on a special Evisu project designed for the Hollywood market. I was very fortunate to work with such a genius!

      Unknown Factory/Eclipse Noir
      Basically, I made this guy's ideas into a reality.

      A lot of these were start-up companies (at the time) which gave me tons of experience in all things sample making and Pre-production. Sketching, Illustrator, Tech Packs, Patterns, Cutting, Marking, Garment construction, Trim development and application, etc are all things I had to do quickly and accurately.
