About
I am a fashion and textile designer based in Melbourne, Australia, currently seeking freelance work and new clients within the streetwear industry.
I hold an Honours degree in Fashion Design from RMIT and a Graduate Certificate in Visual Art from the University of Melbourne.
I currently work as a fashion designer for youth streetwear brand Dangerfield, where I design apparel and textiles across all categories.
Each month I design around fifty styles and see them through the full production process - from concept design, range planning, technical drawing, tech packing, fittings and fabric selection (and approvals) to working with suppliers, managing samples, and producing e-commerce and campaign photoshoots.
I develop original textile artworks and yardages for every range.
My background in garment design and production gives me a unique edge as a textile designer as I have the ability to produce CAD specifications for both garments and fabric.
