Apparel Designer | Illustrator | Creative Lead
I’m an artist and designer raised in Los Angeles, where street culture, music, and DIY energy shaped how I see the world—and how I create in it. I’ve spent the past 19+ years designing apparel, graphics, and products that aim to connect with people, tell a story, and feel built to last.
My approach is hands-on and imaginative. I sketch, sew, pattern, and prototype. Not just to execute ideas, but to understand them better. I’m constantly learning—whether that means refining a silhouette, experimenting with 3D design, or digging deeper into what makes a product resonate.
Most recently, I led design for the Direct-to-Market Apparel division at Vans, where I helped shape capsules for key accounts, mentored a growing team, and worked to bring both creative clarity and thoughtful execution to every project.
I’m driven by craft, culture, and curiosity. I care about the details—the trims, the typography, the feeling a garment gives someone when they put it on. More than anything, I believe great design starts with empathy: for the process, for the product, and for the people it's made for.
