    My work here is based on a 12 year career focusing on trend development, graphic and print design, as well as garment construction and line development for Men’s, Women’s, Boy’s, Girl’s and I/T markets in the sportswear, activewear, outerwear, underwear and swimwear categories. Because of this diversity in markets and categories, I have developed a flexibility in approach that I hope to showcase through this portfolio.
