About
I’m a senior Textile Designer and Product Development specialist with 10+ years of experience in home textiles, including rugs, cushions, throws, bathmats, poufs, and kitchen linens. I translate international buyer briefs into market-ready collections by combining strong CAD design skills with hands-on sampling, vendor coordination, and production support.
Over my career, I’ve worked closely with global buyers such as Walmart, JYSK, Dollar General, Dollar Tree, ROSS, HomeGoods, VCNY Home, and Li & Fung. I focus on delivering the right balance of cost, quality, and timeline—ensuring pre-production approvals, QC checks, and export-aligned documentation so products move smoothly from concept to shipment.
