APPAREL DESIGN & FASHION MARKETING
As a Senior Fashion Design student at the University of Cincinnati's DAAP program, I have developed a multidisciplinary perspective through immersive industry experiences in apparel design, bridal, and luxury fashion. My co-op experiences have reinforced my belief that fashion exists at the intersection of artistry, craftsmanship, and human connection.
My work is driven by a fascination with beauty, emotion, and the moments that make us feel most alive. Specializing in bridal and eventwear, I am passionate about creating pieces that balance timeless elegance with a modern sense of individuality. Through thoughtful construction, innovative surface design, and meticulous attention to detail, I seek to transform garments into meaningful experiences that empower the wearer and tell a story.
As a designer, I am inspired by the idea that life itself is inherently romantic. Whether through couture craftsmanship, movement, texture, or silhouette, my goal is to create work that celebrates beauty, evokes emotion, and leaves a lasting impression.
