About

As a senior fashion designer and product developer I combine my passion and expertise in fashion and footwear design with my skills in graphic design to create innovative products and experiences that meet the needs and expectations of my clients. I have over 10 years of experience in the industry, working with various brands, clients, and projects.

I hold a master’s degree in advanced fashion design from Polimoda, and a certification in entrepreneurship from McGill University. I have a keen eye for trends, aesthetics, and functionality, as well as a strong sense of branding and marketing. I enjoy collaborating with other creative professionals, learning new tools and techniques, and challenging myself to deliver high-quality work. My goal is to create products and experiences that are not only beautiful and useful, but also meaningful and sustainable.
