About
I graduated from The Visual College of Art and Design, where I honed my creative and analytical skills in fashion design, marketing strategies, trend forecasting, and consumer behaviour. This educational foundation has equipped me with a deep understanding of the fashion industry.
I am a passionate and dedicated professional with a diverse background in fashion design, marketing, customer service, and entrepreneurship. With over 14 years of experience in the customer service industry, I bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise to the table.
Additionally, I am proud to have launched and managed my own small local company in the food industry. As an entrepreneur, I have developed strong leadership, organizational, and strategic planning skills. Owning a business has taught me the value of creativity, adaptability, and resilience, qualities that are essential in the fashion industry.
