For the majority of my career, I have been employed internally on Design + Development teams with some of the world’s premier brands to design all aspects of their fashion/apparel products. As a designer, I always conducted in-depth market, trend and competitor research. I ensured my designs were always on brand with the company’s vision and customer desires/needs. Now, as a trusted freelance advisor, I continue to be instrumental in defining and executing product for world-class brands focused on positioning them as a front-runner in their markets. I am known for putting together powerful presentations to executives, buyers, vendors, and resellers to gain buy-in. My ability to influence and lead is evident throughout my career. In 2025, in pursuit of my lifelong love of learning, I will be teaching classes at Rocky Mountain College of Art + Design here in Denver, as well as working on my Master in Business (MS) degree at CU Denver. I plan to unite all of my creative skills with new Business + Analytical skills towards entrepreneurship.
