Available to hire
I am an award-winning fashion designer and educator with over 15 years of international experience in the fashion industry. I co-founded JenaTheo, a London Fashion Week label, and was honored with the Fashion Fringe Award, with mentorship from Donatella Versace. I am skilled in creative direction, collection development, fashion illustration, and pattern cutting. I am currently focused on teaching and mentoring the next generation of designers, bringing a strong mix of industry insight, academic expertise, and creative leadership.
I am passionate about empowering students and emerging designers to turn ideas into thoughtful, market-ready collections. I bring hands-on industry experience from London and Thessaloniki, blending practical design leadership with academic rigor to help designers grow their skills and confidence.
