Berlin, Germany
I am currently based in Berlin where I began my career as a Junior Designer for the accessories developer, Scarpe. Subsequently I moved to the LVMH prize semifinalist Ottolinger as a Junior Designer, Studio Manager and Head of Production. In cooperation with Ottolinger, I was also a Technical Assist
ant for Yeezy. Recently I have worked with Dumitrascu as well as producing the new work of my own that have just been published; https://bit.ly/2B3dlkj.
Having had 4 years’ experience working with independent labels I am now keenly looking for a design role in an established fashion house. I am a strong communicator, thrive under pressure and am detail orientated. I aim to see things from always-new perspectives and to exercise highly critical thinking. I have an innate curiosity and creativity, and a relentless desire to discover new things in all areas. I have been told a great skill of mine is to be capable of understanding what is needed, even when unspoken.
