about me
Fashion is supposed to be fun - isn’t it why we do this?
My goal is to focus on creating cohesive, trend-right collections that reflect each customer’s brand, while applying my business and presentation skills in the ever-evolving fashion landscape.
Over the years I've had the honor of designing for numerous iconic American sportswear companies - i.e. Kenneth Cole, Anne Klein, Ralph Lauren and Macy’s. I’ve also managed collaborations for renowned contemporary brands Vera Wang, Vena Cava and French Connection.
These experiences have helped develop my crucial apparel industry acumen: driving design and product initiatives between Management, Sales, FD&R and Sourcing departments; building lasting relationships with design teams as well as vendors.
Outside the office, I've led volunteer efforts with Street Project and Citymeals on Wheels. I also partner with aspiring designers via the Fashion Scholarship Foundation and Kent State University (my alma mater!), where I currently serve as advisory panelist and mentor.
When I’m not designing or travelling, I can be found at the neighborhood pop-up market or restaurant with family & friends.
