Experienced in both mens and womens Sportswear markets, my background of training and competing in various sports since a young age has informed and driven my design practice.
I understand the details and construction methods required to design highly functional performance sportswear. I have a particular interest in performance outerwear, which I would like to explore in my future career. I strive to make my designs as sustainable as possible through considered fabrication and trim sourcing, in addtion to design for physical and emotional durability.
