I studied fashion design in Geneva and before getting my degree I went to a technical school where I learnt pattern-making and sewing. I have experience in fashion houses as well as small brands. My last place of employment was in Portugal where I was working as the Collection & Studio Manager. I took care of everything from pattern-making to sourcing fabrics and planning everything needed for production. I worked with a great team doing many different types of tasks allowing me to acquire many skills.
