About me
I am a Textile Design graduate of 2020 currently undertaking 2 internships. One at a small, funky, slow fashion brand West Carolina, where I have been doing competitor research, embroidery design, copywriting and various other tasks. My second internship is with Oxfam Festival Shop where I have been collating trend research and up-cycling second hand clothing to resell at a higher value on online platforms. I’m a very creative person and love designing. I graduated Nottingham Trent University with a 1st in Textile Design with specialist knowledge of embroidery and a passion for print. My ideal job would be a textile designer working in a team for an experimental high fashion brand.
