Hello!
I’m an apparel and accessories product developer based in the Washington, DC metro area. I’m naturally curious and observant, always looking for the details in how things work and how people live.
I am interested in what lasts and why certain pieces earn a place in someone’s life. I pay attention to material, story, and timing to decide what to refine and what to push forward. I am always looking for the sticky idea: that specific quality that makes something get under people's skin and stay in their conversations long after they first see it.
I like being the person who connects the dots. I am adaptable and comfortable working in ambiguity, aligning the vision and moving the work from concept to something buildable. Because everything communicates, I treat the documentation and the presentation of a project with as much importance as the project itself. I aim for the never been done before while ensuring every decision is rooted in a buildable reality.
Make what people keep.
