As a fashion designer, I am trained and equipped to conceptualize and produce a broad range of clothing and accessories both in-house or as a consultant designer. After graduating from one of the country’s most prestigious fashion design programs, I am continually perfecting my technical and creative skills. I specifically specialize in menswear tailoring, womenswear, and eveningwear.
