I'm offering
I’m an experienced apparel designer and design manager, with an international background, covering professional roles based in both London and the US. I have worked for many of the world's most desirable brands including Nike and New Balance. I am passionate about creating innovative and commercial product, while strengthening brand identity through design. My deep concern for the environment has led me to spend the past 18 months on a personal project, looking at responsible sourcing, supply chains and manufacturing, to enable integration of these important values into the way we make clothing today, working towards a circular economy.
