I'm a detail-oriented fashion designer with experience across menswear, womenswear, knitwear and woven categories. I specialize in taking ideas from concept through to production, including trend research, fabric and trim selection, fit sessions, and supplier coordination. I'm increasingly focused on sustainable materials and ethical production, and I enjoy process-driven design that balances commercial needs with responsible sourcing. I am excited to contribute to a Sweden-based team as a junior to mid-level designer.
