Available to hire
I’m a designer focused on sport, performance and activewear collections, bringing together practical functionality and modern branding. I work with details like reflective logo placement, seamless bonded finishes, functional pockets, to create garments that feel comfortable and look polished during movement.
I’m also involved in product styling across multiple collection ranges, from lifestyle essentials to performance-focused pieces like leggings, tanks, and cycling shorts. By aligning trims, construction details, and materials, I help ensure each item in the range delivers the right look and fit for active days.
