About Me.

I'm a Chicago-based aspiring designer currently pursuing a Bachelors of Science in Textile and Fashion Design with a Business Certificate at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. I'm passionate about taking designs from concept through to completion, combining creative development with technical execution through pattern making, draping, illustration, and garment construction.

My design perspective has been shaped by early college coursework at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, as well as hands-on experience through my time in a fashion merchandising showroom and work in retail apparel. I bring both creative vision and industry awareness to my work.

My designs are influenced by urban culture, with a focus on detail, structure, and intentional execution.
