I am a strategic brand builder and product specialist that is skilled in all aspects of design, development, merchandising, trend forecasting and consumer analysis. I love to create compelling new collections, evolve iconic silhouettes & transform seasonal concepts. I have a strong point of view balanced by a keen business sense and comprehensive market knowledge. I’ve successfully managed the creative vision and execution of multiple product lines/categories. I enjoy managing and motivating others to maximize talent and grow creativity and sales. My strength is pairing my conceptual abilities with my technical skills and passion for product.
