About me
I am a final year BA (Hons) Menswear Fashion Design Student. I love the challenge and excitement of my degree, and all the strategies and techniques I have learned.

    Fashion Design InternGreat Plains
     - London, United KingdomInternship
    I worked at Great Plains for just over 6 months as the principal intern on my sandwich year. This was an amazing experience where I gained invaluable knowledge and guidance. I designed many prints and embroideries by hand. I was made solely responsible for all elements of bag design resulting in the buying teams making orders for the first time under the Great Plains brand.
