Welcome to my Fashion Universe
Welcome to my portfolio, born out of my time as an Apparel Merchandising and Design student with an Emphasis in Creative Design at Iowa State University. This portfolio reflects my journey through classes like Fashion Illustration, Pattern Making, Draping, Digital Textile Printing, and Senior Design line, among others. Each piece in this portfolio is a testament to my exploration of surface design and couture techniques, such as unique materials, digital printing, intricate beading, embroidery, and laser cutting. Embracing the essence of androgynous fashion, I have reimagined traditional menswear with a feminine touch, playing with classic sportswear separates to create a unique and eclectic twist.

As Head of Production and Technical design at Preservation, I help conceptualize and produce all REWORKED pieces. Each piece is remanufactured from vintage or used clothing to bring a new life to the garment.
