With over a decade of experience in high-end fashion design, I specialize in both women's wear and footwear, blending creativity with meticulous craftsmanship. My career has encompassed a range of roles from knitwear and casual sports-style shoes design to managing sample production and coordinating with international factories. My tenure with notable brands, including Zara, has honed my skills in creating stylish and innovative collections tailored to diverse markets. I bring a keen eye for detail and a collaborative approach to every project, consistently achieving successful design outcomes and client satisfaction. I am excited to connect with future clients to explore new opportunities and tackle fresh design challenges.
