Fashion Graduate and teacher of fashion with over 20 years experience including International sales

Methodology

I am very hands-on, I like to give my students to have the freedom to express themselves as designers as well as being there for support and advice on the industry. I like to help my students find their voice and who their customer or potential market will be and drive them towards that goal.

Background

I have over 20 years of experience in fashion. I have designed, manufactured and sold my collections through David Jones Australia for many years, many boutiques throughout Australia and have done many trade shows in Europe where it led me to sales all over Europe as well as making many connections and having the pleasure of working with Harrods and clients in the UAE.
