My name is Karli Inez Foster, and I am a Designer and Director with over 25 years of experience within the sporting goods industry. Throughout my career, I have led dynamic design teams across apparel and footwear categories, shaping brand-level color and material strategies and pioneering forward-thinking footwear and apparel concepts. My work is driven by a passion for aesthetics and a curiosity about the intersection of art and science - particularly how color, material, and form influence human interactions with consumer products and environments. In every project, I am inspired by the creative process and the boundaries within which we work, developing a visual language that is both innovative and rooted in strong aesthetic principles. I am committed to guiding with purpose and curiosity, where collaboration thrives, ensuring that the design process remains inspiring and engaging. Thank you for considering my experience and vision. I look forward to the opportunity to explore how my background aligns with your creative goals.
