I am a detail-oriented technical designer with 7+ years in apparel design and product development, specializing in women’s wear, knit fabrics, woven textiles, and soft home. I excel at creating tech packs, BOMs, and pattern adjustments, and I thrive in cross-functional collaboration with merchants, vendors, and design teams to deliver high-quality products on time. I’ve led capsule collections, supported luxury and mass-market campaigns, and am passionate about eco-conscious materials and storytelling through design. I work well across creative and production stages, from concept to final delivery, and enjoy building strong brand narratives through thoughtful styling and garment construction.
