Designer

I'm a self taught designer with over 12 years of experience. Much of my experience is in garment construction techniques over a broad range of garment types. I'm insatiably curious and have spent time learning methods of industrial design, sewn process engineering, traditional sketching and fashion design.

I provide technical and non-technical support to customers across a wide range of products and services. Skilled in triaging, monitoring, and resolving alerts for both customer and internal systems. Proficient in educating customers on products and services, diagnosing and resolving technical issues, and maintaining accurate documentation. Dedicated to expanding technical knowledge through ongoing training and utilizing internal resources. Committed to delivering exceptional customer service while working collaboratively with internal and external partners.

Network Operations Support Technician

LDM is my personal brainchild as a brand exercise and product development/design space. I use this concept to explore all aspects of design primarily focusing on fashion but also non apparel and industrial. Using industry contacts, service providers, the internet and employment opportunities, I have amassed knowledge on design, garment construction and pattern making, industrial sewing machine classes, their setup, operation and maintenance. I have taken the time to learn and incorporate industry best practices into my design work and use this ongoing project as a process for constant real-time self improvement. Over the duration of this ongoing project I have personally invested thousands of dollars of my own money and the same in hours of learning and practice.
