About Me

Personal Design Style

Throughout my designs I playfully explore a balance of hand-printing techniques, and digital drawing and colouration. Texture has always been a priority within my work. The unpredictability of hand-printing is something that has always excited me, and I love that the imperfections show evidence of the person behind the design. I have taken a maximalist approach to most of my collections, carefully exploring the relationship between individuality and commerciality.

Skills Overview

Having specialised in printed textile design, I am confident interpreting hand-drawn and digital motifs into seamless repeat patterns using Adobe Photoshop. I frequently identify key trends relating to market level, brand, and application, allowing me to adapt my work to fit the relevant sector. Working across multi-disciplinary teams has strengthened my communication and presentation skills, preparing me for collaboration within the industry. I have experience working to and managing multiple deadlines simultaneously. This has drastically strengthened my organisation and time-management, as well as prepared me for the fast-paced nature of an in-house design studio.

Achievements

I have experienced success across multiple live briefs during my time at university. In January 2025, I achieved 1st prize for my bedroom collection created for Ashley Wilde Group. I was additionally offered a 2-week placement at their head office, and my enthusiasm subsequently led to the company very kindly sponsoring my during my final year at university. In December 2025, I achieved 3rd prize for my S/S27 men's shirting collection for Paul Vogel. From this experience, I was given the opportunity to showcase my designs to the buying team at Aubin.
