About me

A Multi-disciplinary creative with a Directors, vision and talent.

My research explores the idea of low emissions craft in manufacturing, led by sustainable
methodologies when exploring materiality and construction. Often informed by circular systems, Bio-Design and processes focused on creating renewable resources end of life. My research conducted as
part of my post-graduate studies led me to consult and present works A Cold Wall, Loewe, and the V&A
London Design festival.
Having worked across the footwear industry for the last thirteen years as a Designer Manager /
Developer. I have experience overseeing all sequences of operations from trend forecasting, Design
direction, Prototyping - Product Development and Sourcing.
Working with factories across Asia: Sri Lanka, China, India, and Europe: Portugal, Italy and the UK to
develop tooling and implement new operations to ensure quality and efficiency.
I pride myself on having progressive, versatile handwriting. Experienced in designing Men's & Women's
casual, sport, formal and dress. With a background in shoemaking and knowledge of various shoe
constructions and processes. Capable of amending and making patterns, a skill set I found has served me
well when working closely with factories as well as working in 3D developing assets for 3D printing for
development and performance.
I believe this would be a fantastic opportunity due to my relevant experience which will allow for a
smooth transition able to anticipate future potential obstacles regarding logistical operations sensitive
to the critical path.

Thank you for reading, I look forward to hearing from you soon
