FASHION DESIGNER/ TEXTILE ARTIST
As someone working within the fashion industry, my primary goal is to create beautiful and innovative garments that not only look good, but fit perfectly and contribute to the larger conversation on sustainability. I firmly believe that clothing can be a force for good, and that we can create a better, more equitable industry by prioritising environmental responsibility and social justice.
I have a wide range of experience within the fashion industry which make me the ideal addition to any creative, hardworking team; from completing a BA(Hons) in Menswear at the widely respected London College of Fashion, to graduating and working for luxury fashion brands to produce runway pieces as well as production collections.
What has shaped me even further is experiences outside of my career. In October 2022 I underwent open heart surgery and was off work and unable to do much for a few months. This experience gave me a lot of quiet time to think and since fully recovering, I feel a deep sense of belief in myself. That time showed me that I am resilient mentally and physically and to give my all to everything I want to do
