Available to hire
I am a fashion designer with nearly 10 years of experience across women’s wear, apparel, footwear, and accessories. I have a strong background in CAD design, trend research, and range development, and I create commercial, customer-focused collections.
I currently contribute at N Brown, translating trend research into best-selling products, collaborating with Buying, QA, and suppliers to improve fit, quality, and fabric innovation, and introducing new stretch fabrics and co-ord ranges. I also mentor placement students and take inspiration trips to fashion capitals such as Paris and Madrid.
