About Sénamie


Trained in industrial creation and product design, I am also a new product developer (sourcing, RFQ, supplier negotiations, project planning, validation of production artwork). I therefore know how to fully participate in the design of an innovative and aesthetic product.

Already partnered with manufacturing factories, I can produce prototypes as well as handle manufacturing upon order.

I am proficient in 2D and 3D tools (sketches, mock-ups, 3D modeling, prototyping printing).

Passionate about creativity, versatile, proactive, and methodical, I have extensive knowledge of different types of materials and printing and manufacturing techniques.

I also ensure that products respect the cost/deadline/quality triangle while integrating them into market trends.

I have successfully managed numerous projects (gifts, fashion, publishing..), my online portfolio: coroflot.com/Senamie_Steward

You can find many of my past creations for purchase, which have been and continue to be sales successes, reissued for several years.

I will help develop your business, make it shine, and anchor it in our time in terms of responsibility and sustainability.
