For nearly 14 years, my journey in apparel graphics has been a dynamic adventure. It all began with Club Monaco before I made the leap to Columbus, Ohio, to join the innovative team at A&F's Ruehl 925. As my career progressed, I took on increasingly senior roles at esteemed brands like Carter's and VS Pink, where I honed my skills from ideation to production, navigating through countless mockups and production files along the way.
In 2012, I embarked on a personal endeavor by launching a small "T-Shirt Line," a venture that unexpectedly led to a serendipitous encounter with a buyer from Beams Japan. Within a month, I found myself with 1700 units bound for stores—an exhilarating experience that underscored the potential of my creative vision.
Over the following four years, I delved deeper into the intricacies of the apparel industry, gaining invaluable insights into the business aspects, including sales, licensing, and production. This journey has been one of continuous learning and growth, enriching my understanding of every facet of the apparel business and fueling my passion for creative innovation.
