Fashion Marketing & Jewelry Design Consultant
With a degree in Fashion Marketing & Management from The Art Institutes, completed in 2011, I have cultivated a diverse career in design and product development. Currently, I serve as a Fine Jewelry Design & Product Development Consultant at the NBA Store, where I collaborate with the Retail Director to create branded fine jewelry. My role as a Product Design & Development Consultant at Built Robotics involves managing the full cycle of soft goods production for promotional materials. Since 2015, I have been a Leather Accessories Designer at Article & Goods, focusing on premium leather goods. My journey began as a Jewelry Designer at Thesis of Alexandria, crafting minimal and contemporary women's jewelry. In 2023, I collaborated with Minori Beauty to co-create a limited edition leather travel case. My work is characterized by a commitment to quality, simplicity, and timeless design.
