My journey in the industry began as an assistant designer at OBEY Clothing, which was a relatively small company of ten people at the time. Through hard work, dedication, and personal growth, my role, along with the company itself, grew. While being the trusted right hand of the Art Director/Menswear Creative Director from early in my time at the company, my efforts ultimately resulted in my becoming a senior menswear designer for more than a decade. Now with more than fifteen years of experience in the fashion industry under my belt, I hope to bring a unique perspective, diverse background, and passion for design to any team of like-minded creatives.

During my tenure at OBEY Clothing, I was given the opportunity to design for every category within any given collection, which allowed me to develop a wide range of skills and experiences. From jewelry and simple t-shirts, complex jackets, woven shirts, pants, and accessories to catalog layout and design. I have had the chance to design it all. I also have had the privilege of playing a vital role in building OBEY Clothing into what it is today. Gaining knowledge and understanding of various styles, such as military, outdoor, skate, and high-end fashion along the way.

Having experience in market research, tasks such as keeping up with fashion trends and color palettes for each season are a top priority. A honed ability for analyzing market trends and consumer preferences enables me to create designs that are both on-trend and, most importantly, timeless. Proficiency in speaking Mandarin also allows me to communicate effectively with factories, ensuring my designs are executed accurately. It is my humble assertion that innovative design, a keen eye for detail, and my experience in the fashion industry make me an ideal addition to any design team. I am excited about the opportunity to bring my skills, experience, and unique perspective to your team and help take your fashion brand to the next level.
