After over a decade leading design and brand direction at PJ Salvage, I’m ready for a new creative chapter; one that challenges and inspires me in fresh ways As Senior Designer for PJ Salvage, I was responsible for the full direction, design, and execution of the seasonal line, as well as capsule collections, private label programs, and special collaborations. Over the past 10 years, I’ve guided creative strategy while managing the graphic, product development, and design teams; helping grow the company from $25M to $50M through thoughtful design, and strong product identity. My design philosophy is rooted in creating collections that feel elevated; balancing trend, comfort, and lifestyle. I’m deeply experienced in concept development, print and textile design, and building cohesive assortments that align with brand DNA and market opportunities. I’d love the opportunity to bring my creative perspective, leadership experience, and passion for lifestyle-driven product to your team. Thank you for your time in reviewing this, and I look forward to the chance to connect and share how I can contribute to your success.
