Description

Passionate about knitwear; I've made it my profession!

A designer specializing in knitwear by training and by heart; I also thrive in development which fuels my desire to stay connected with factories throughout the creative process.

I am also a teacher in a fashion school. I teach style, fashion illustration, and knitwear technique on knitting machines. My curiosity for my know-how is unceasing; I am currently training in programming on industrial knitting machines Shima Seiki.
