SO TREND
Young Women’s Collections
Launched a Young Women’s brand that covered off on the whitespace design need for trendy collections across the Kohl’s floor pad. Concept started in 125 stores and rolled out to all stores within a year of creation due to its impactful success during a global pandemic.
NINE WEST Designer
Worked closely with my team on the innovation of sweaters and knit tops for the RTW Women’s business. Both categories were top grossing across all separates, challenged to refine and rethink the customer during peak FA/HY season for overall brand growth.
Sketching
Proficient in Adobe Suite Programs and Browzewear, technical sketches showcase knowledge of garment construction and fit.
FORECASTING
During the brainstorming phase of design, much of the research compiled helps to outline product priorities. This is one of my favorite parts of the creative process; forecasting helps to show key ideas, color direction, and outfitting across all design channels. This process is a critical tool to align all cross functional players to seasonal messages. Looking to runway and social trends, forecasting is a means to excite all players for a new cycle of designing.
EDITORIAL
My editorial styling explores narrative through instinctive collaboration. I have used my knowledge of draping, directing, and concepting in real time to build scenes that feel alive, and fun! Each look emerges from movement and emotion, blending fashion and storytelling into a visual dialogue where rebellion, intimacy, and imagination can coexist.
PLM
Knits & Sweaters
Utilized PLM software on a daily basis as a Senior Designer. Highly proficient in large scale programs, multiple fabric qualities, trims, material identification, sample requests, pitch sheets, and technical sketching. Partnered closely with technical designers in the creation of POM’s and style hand-offs.
FINE ART
My fine art practice explores emotion, memory, and perception through layered imagery and symbolic form. I approach painting as a curious outlet, an intuitive process that reveals the psychology beneath beauty and control. Ultimately freeing the viewer of any perceptions that exist outside of themselves.
