Biographie

Based in Canada since December 2021, I am a fashion design professional fluent in English, with some knowledge of Dutch, Russian, and German. Currently, I am pursuing a Canadian diploma in Fashion Design at LaSalle Collège in Montréal to complement my extensive industry experience. With over a decade of successfully running my own fashion business in Egypt, I bring expertise in sewing, garment design, pattern making, and illustration. I thrive in dynamic, fast-paced environments and have a strong background in customer relations. Passionate about fashion and design, I am eager to contribute my skills and experience to the industry in Canada.
