Senior Fashion Technical Designer with 9+ years of experience creating factory-ready tech packs and developing apparel and accessories from concept to production.
I help fashion brands and startups reduce sampling confusion, costly revisions, and unnecessary factory back-and-forth by creating clear technical documentation manufacturers can actually work from.
My services include:
• Factory-ready apparel and accessory tech packs
• Technical flats and detailed construction drawings
• BOMs, fabric, trim, hardware, label and artwork specifications
• Measurement specifications, POMs and grading
• Construction details, stitching and finishing instructions
• Apparel collection and product development
• Tech pack review, updates and production-readiness checks
• Sample review and factory communication support
• Handbag and accessory development
• CLO 3D visualization and garment development when required
I’ve worked with fashion brands and startups across the USA, Australia, UAE and the UK, developing womenswear, menswear, activewear, streetwear, accessories and handbags.
My previous projects are:
- Designing for an activewear brand (Centauron, Australia)
- Apparel design and creation of tech packs (PRO Unlimited Group, USA)
- Designing for women's active wear brand (Activeist, UAE)
- Designing for a street fashion brand (USA, MEJESTI)
- Designing for a street fashion brand (the UK, BLUJUJ)
- Designing T-shirt illustrations and fabric patterns (the UK, AQUA&ROCK)
-Launched my own brand URBANTEAM
- Apparel and Handbag designing and preparing tech packs (SAINT PERRY, USA)
- Watercolor sketches of a bag collection (for a catalog and tech sketch for a manufactory) (Veera Lee, USA)
- Designing shoes and preparing tech packs (USA)
I am also certified in Luxury Brand DNA & Brand Management by LVMH.
I have also written a book called "From Sketches to Runway" – a guidebook on how to launch fashion collections. It’s available on Amazon. So, I'm familiar with the industry from the inside.
What differentiates my work from purely visual fashion design is the production handoff: the design has to be not only attractive, but clear enough for a manufacturer to interpret, sample and reproduce consistently.
If you already have a sketch, reference, existing tech pack or initial collection idea, send it to me together with your current development stage. I can help identify what is still missing before it goes to the factory.
