About me

I have just finished studying a 4 year Master of Design Degree at
The University of Brighton. I specialised in knitwear design and want
to now progress into the design industry. I am extremely hard working
and love being part of a team.

As part of my degree I did a minor in Business Studies which
included a placement both abroad and in London. It also gave me
extensive knowledge of the Business side of fashion. I recently won The
University of Brighton Business Award for producing an outstanding
business plan so also have knowledge of cash flows and what it takes to
produce a successful business idea.

I love all aspects of design; from drawing to trend predictions and
have recently had some of my samples shown on the WGSN trend prediction
forecast for 2011. My designs are sensitive and well thought out with
the use of luxurious yarns to enable the quality of the fabric to take
priority. I was lucky enough to win a bursary prize from The Worshipful
Company of Framework Knitters for my forward thinking in knitwear
design and my execution of fabric design in my final year of
university. I love all areas of design and would grasp any opportunity
within the design industry.
