Available to hire
I am a design and textiles specialist with over 20 years of experience in fashion textile print design and CAD CAM. I have contributed to and led design projects across several textile mills and now work as a freelance designer, crafting print designs for home and fashion textiles according to trends and client requirements.
I blend creative ideation with production-ready technical know-how, covering concept development, repeats, color separation, colorways, and texture mapping. I enjoy collaborating with merchandisers, mentoring junior designers, and translating client briefs into market-ready prints that perform across fabrics and surfaces.
