I began my entrepreneurial journey in 2015, a year after graduating from design school. Using the knowledge I gained from school and industry internships, I ventured into the fashion industry of which I've wanted to be a part of since childhood.In 2016, I launched my design label, specializing in occasion wear. Quality and craftsmanship have always taken precedence over quantity. I am an outcome-focused leader who values building strong relationships and fostering collaborative work environments.
Throughout the process of business development and brand building, I took on multiple roles and gained a diverse set of skills. These include brand management, project management, vendor management, and people management, all acquired through hands-on experience. In addition to running an enterprise, I also worked as a freelance Brand Strategist and Fashion Consultant, leading visual storytelling for various brands' e-commerce platforms and advertising campaigns. I collaborated with celebrities and photographers to ensure creative output was aligned. My desire for knowledge and growth led me to pursue a Master of Science in Strategic Design and Management from Parsons School of Design in New York, which I successfully completed in May 2023. This journey broadened my horizons, honed my strategic thinking abilities, and equipped me with the skills to create impactful and innovative solutions. Additionally, in January 2024, I became a certified Professional Scrum Master, issued by scrum.org.
As a creative and strategic thinker, I bring a unique perspective to business management. My experience in the fashion industry has taught me the importance of staying ahead of trends while prioritizing sustainability and human-centered design. I am excited about working with visionary teams and organizations to drive positive change and growth.I look forward to connecting and embarking on a journey of design-driven success together!
