LET'S WORK TOGETHER
I am a pattern maker and technical designer who has a passion for quality and attention to detail. I excel at turning concepts into technical designs that can be produced efficiently and successfully. My wealth of knowledge in garment manufacturing and construction means that I can anticipate issues before they arise and create solutions that are both creative and practical. With a focus on translating design sketches into well-fitting samples, I maintain high standards of quality and ensure brand integrity. Whether you're looking for a one-time project or a long-term partnership, I'm here to help you bring your designs to life.
Get in touch so we can start working together.
