I am a fashion designer with 9 years of experience across multiple roles
within the industry. This diverse experience has allowed me to develop key
skills for designing for a contemporary customer. Having worked in initial
customer research, product development, production and marketing and sales
phases of the garment life cycle have allowed me to create pieces perfect for
their target market.
