Freelance fashion designer with neafly 20 years of professional apparel design experience.
I graduated with a Menswear Design Degree in 2000. My first fashion design role was on London's prestigious Bond Street designing for traditional British Menswear designer brand Moss Bros. I then moved across London to Shoreditch designing clothes for the streetwear label Bench. After being head-hunted I moved out to Nuremberg, Germany for the next five years working as a Senior Apparel Designer for the sportswear brand Puma. In 2008 I moved back home to Brighton and set up a Design Studio working for many different fashion brands including Adidas and Next. In 2012 I took on a new Full-Time denim design role in London’s West End for Next Sourcing. In 2014 I moved up north to Manchester taking on a sportswear design position with Umbro designing football kits and activewear. Now living in the beautiful Yorkshire village of Marsden, working once more as a Freelance Fashion Designer, I have been designing outdoor-wear for Regatta/Dare2b, lifestyle sportswear for US Hip Hop label Ecko Unltd and fast fashion and on-trend ranges for two young UK Instagram brands Aces Couture and Scar Tissue.
