Tired of confusing tech packs, missed fit expectations, and tight deadlines you can’t afford to miss?
I provide clean, accurate CADs and detailed tech packs that streamline communication, reduce costly sampling errors, and keep your calendar on track. With years of hands-on experience in factory coordination and technical design, I help you get it right the first time, so you can move from sketch to sample with confidence. -
Frustrated by miscommunication with factories and samples that seem to vanish into thin air?
I offer hands-on product development support that bridges the gap between design and production, managing timelines, tracking samples, and maintaining clear, consistent communication with vendors. From first proto to final approval, I keep your development process organized, transparent, and moving forward. -
Overwhelmed by sourcing and unsure where to find quality, sustainable materials or reliable vendors?
I take the guesswork out of sourcing by connecting you with vetted mills, trim suppliers, and ethical manufacturers that align with your design vision and sustainability goals. From fabric fairs to factory deep dives, I do the research, vet the partners, and help you build a trusted, transparent supply chain you can grow with. -
Want to be more sustainable but don’t know where to start or who to trust?
I help brands cut through the noise with tailored sustainability consulting, from setting clear, achievable goals to sourcing verified materials and partners that align with your values. Whether you're just starting out or ready to level up your impact, I provide grounded, strategic guidance to help you build a brand that’s both ethical and effective.
