‘TILL DEATH DO WE ART

I have a gift market and luxury fashion market background, creating products and jewelry for women, kids, and men, with over 15 years experience developing with top selling brands found at boutiques, major department stores, and mass market retailers.

Always living for art and making;

I’ve spent my life practicing and formally studying the arts and application of treatments in an approach that is based in materials and process, from a childhood obsession/passion through a BFA from Parsons School of Design and beyond. This has lead a full career in product development working from concept to function with factories domestically and overseas to bring a collective ideas from many collaborators into a physical reality. Supported with a knack for trend forecasting grounded in a rich knowledge of fashion and design history, I lean on each runway season and popular culture inclusions like social media to track organic progression of what is relevant—and then translate that to each brand intention across all categories. My trend forecasting is grounded in fashion and design history with a pulse on current innovations influencing the times. While agile in managing and executing styles for production and working with others to achieve this, I’m also known for my hands on output in drawing and making original designs, and contributions to marketing, branding, and PR strategies. My brand experience has strongly positioned around charms and messaging with iconic and sentimental themes, while my personal style is driven by bold colors, heavy patterns, natural curiosities and animal references, and elemental materials like gemstones and metal, paired with antique and psychedelic influences.
