About
I’m a Fashion & Textile Designer with a strong eye for colour, texture, and pattern, experienced in leading creative concepts from idea through to production. I combine artistic vision with a practical understanding of design, manufacturing, and market needs to deliver high-quality, functional products.
I hold a BFA in Fashion Design from Virginia Commonwealth University’s School of the Arts and studied abroad at London College of Fashion. Previously, I worked as a Graphic Designer and Seamstress at NOPINZ, where I played a key role in developing bespoke performance cycling apparel. My experience spans digital design, CAD development, sublimation dye processes, and garment construction, supported by an in-depth knowledge of the end-to-end manufacturing process.
Detail-oriented and collaborative, I enjoy mentoring, problem-solving, and driving projects forward while maintaining high creative standards. I’m motivated by building strong design narratives and translating creative direction into market-ready products.
