I'm a British fashion designer with over 10 years of experience across high fashion, sportswear, and collaborative design projects. I've contributed to Erdem, Christopher Shannon, Adidas Terrex insulated jackets, Adidas Football, and Adidas Originals, while collaborating with partners like Danielle Cathari to bring bold, consumer-focused ideas to life. Now focused on full-time freelance work, I design versatile collections remotely for EU-based brands, lead cross-disciplinary teams, and translate concept into retail-ready products. I love seeing ideas come to life at launch events and through public-facing campaigns.
