About me
My education and work experiences in textiles and business have enabled me to develop a great creative, technical and commercially applicable skillset. My greatest interests in this area lie in the development of smart fabrics and machine knitting. University has inspired me to explore this area further and has increased my trend and market awareness in textiles. My main strengths lie in exploring unusual yarns and knit structures, which allow to me to achieve very experimental results.

I have also made hard and soft material boards to share with clients. I have submitted company projects for awards and successfully won a few.
