Available to hire
Fashion designer specialized in garment construction, patternmaking, draping, and technical specification sheets, with strong hands-on experience in leather and fur. I build prototypes, manage fit and quality control, and translate creative direction into precise, wearable designs.
I have developed collections and print/textile embellishments, conducted sampling and material research, and supported production through adjustments, repairs, and client-ready deliverables. I’m both detail-oriented and collaborative, from atelier work to self-employment and fashion show preparation.
