★ Are you looking for a creative, collaborative and detail-oriented fashion professional to bring your ideas to reality? You've clicked on the right profile! I'm a Senior Product Designer & Developer with over a decade of experience designing, developing and managing footwear, accessories, socks/hosier and apparel from concept to production. I specialize in translating abstract concepts into tangible, market-ready products - bridging the gap between idea and execution. From initial mockups and mood boards through technical drawings, tech packs, and production, I combine creative direction with a deep understanding of development to support brands, designers, and creative teams. ★ What I Offer: ° Realistic Mockups - High-quality photo realistic mockups of your ideas ° Technical Flats - Clean, accurate technical drawings of garments, accessories or footwear ° Tech Packs & Specification Sheets - Complete documents for production. ° Collection Development - From concept to line-up, I help you build strong fashion collections. ° Material & Fabric Knowledge - Guidance on textiles and materials based on function and aesthetic. ° Construction Insight & Problem Solving - Realistic, production-ready design expertise. ° Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign Proficiency - Expert in rendering, editing, and visual layout. ★Why work with me: I bring over 15+ years of hands-on experience across footwear, accessories, and apparel. Working not just in design and ideation, but through development and into production. I understand how to take an idea, expand on it and move it efficiently through the full critical path without losing intent along the way. I’m a strong collaborator who communicates clearly with both creative teams and suppliers, helping avoid costly missteps and keeping projects on track. Known for my attention to detail and accountability, I ensure that what’s designed is actually achievable, aligned, and ready to go to market. ★Tools I Use: Adobe Illustrator (vector work & technical flats) Adobe Photoshop (mockups, colouring, editing) Adobe Indesign (collection co-ordination, organization) Digital drawing tablets AI Ideation Software (rapid ideation and concepts only) ★ Let's work together! Whether you’re starting from an idea from scratch or refining something already in motion, I can support across mockups, technicals, collection development, and production-ready tech packs. Let's connect and see if I can support your project! Please note that my fee is flexible based on projects - I'm interested in long term collaborations, and short term quick turn around projects.
