Fashion designer with nearly 10 years of professional experience. I hold an Associates Degree in Fashion Design from The Fashion Institute of Technology, complemented by a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Fashion Design from Paris College of Art. Currently based in New York, I thrive as a dedicated fashion designer, specializing particularly in creating Computer-Aided Designs (CADs). Over the years, I've honed my expertise in this area, making it one of my strongest suits.
Teaching has been a natural extension of my journey. I've found myself guiding my assistant, friends, and fellow students during my academic pursuits. My professional experience extends to my time in Paris as the Senior Designer at Peet Dullaert, where I led and mentored interns, assuming the role of a mentor in the atelier.
During my academic journey, I delved deeply into fashion illustration, both traditional and digital, as part of a work-study program. Additionally, I developed a profound interest in Art History, immersing myself in the rich cultural tapestry of Paris.
In my professional capacity, I've had the privilege of presenting to esteemed organizations such as the NBA, NFL, MLB, for Nike. My adeptness in public speaking has been recognized through awards, a skill I'm keen to share and impart to others. I firmly believe in fostering skills, confidence, and presence, while refining verbal communication to eradicate filler words such as "uhms" and "likes."
As a tutor, I embody patience and encouragement, drawing from a wealth of experience to nurture talent and elevate skills to an expert level. My ultimate goal is to empower individuals to reach their fullest potential and bolster their confidence along the way.
I look forward to embarking on this journey with you and helping you achieve your aspirations in the world of fashion and beyond. Let's work together to turn your dreams into tangible realities!
