Summary
I am a passionate fashion design student that loves creating pieces that makes people feel good about themselves and tells a story. With experience in garment construction, digital and hand drawn illustration, I bring a mix of creativity and technical skills to every project. I’ve won awards for evening wear and storytelling through design and I’m constantly trying to improve my CAD and Procreate skills. I’m excited to bring my diverse perspective, adaptability and team work to a design internship where I can work and grow with a inspiring team.
