I am an Apparel & Graphic Designer, with a Fashion Design Apprenticeship from Modatex, Porto.
Furthermore, I have 2+ years of experience in the industry working with Berg Outdoor, a sports brand from Sonae Group and Gianni Kavanagh a growing fast-fashion brand where I acquired an understanding of trend and target analysis, pattern cutting, CAD drawings and illustrations, tech packs and quality control.
Recently, I joined TALLY WeiJL as a design intern for the Denim department at the headquarters in Switzerland and have been learning my way into denim, working in a fast pace environment with an efficiency driven mentality.
My passions consist of all things textile and crafts culture from sewing and drawing to styling and building. I like the fact I can sit and draw something.
Long story short I give my all to the conviction that a product has many tales.
