I have 10+ years of experience working as an in-house graphics and textile designer for a variety of fashion and home decor companies. I’ve created textile patterns, houseware products and marketing materials for the apparel, home and retail industries. As the sole in-house designer and marketing assistant to a jewelry brand, I harnessed the importance of building visual consistency to communicate a core brand and developed unique marketing methods to target specific B2B clients. As a graphic artist for the housewares industries I learned and applied the art of product design from start to finish and applied a variety of artistic techniques to create a desired look for tabletop, novelty and home decor products. As a textile designer, I grew in my attention to detail, production skills, speed to market fashion mentality and technical design experience. I learned to work with small and large commercial brands alike and developed a stronger eye for color and design. My hobbies include, running, yoga, swimming, dancing, sewing and doodling on my iPad.
