Summary

I am a visionary leader and collaborative thinker with a multi-layered perspective shaped by years of experience in fashion, brand strategy, and art direction. I guide teams through every stage of the creative process while fostering an environment where individual strengths are recognized and elevated. Most recently, I directed an Adidas runway show, managing cross-functional teams to deliver a cohesive, story-driven collection. I lead with clarity, empathy, and vision, approaching every project as both a teammate and motivator to ensure impactful results and authentic creative expression.
