Biography

After a successful career in business and finance, I enrolled in the Fashion Design program with the goal of pursuing a new career in the fashion industry. Working with textiles has been a life-long passion, and getting tangible product to completion is personally fulfilling. With my creative mind, technical skills, and business approach I offer a compelling skill set for a growing apparel company.
