Product Development Consultant | 07/2019 - Current

Most notable project was the development and launch of Collection 001 for UNKNWN, the brand started by Lebron James based out of Miami, FL. Working closely with the brand CEO in Miami as well as their general consulting team out of Columbus, OH, I acted as their only on-the-ground liaison from development through production and successfully helped to launch 14 mens contemporary skus with only 6 months between our initial concept meeting and final delivery.

Leveraging cross functional relationships in various sectors, we sourced and developed lines which fell in line with the established brand aesthetic, while also filling in retail gaps to introduce new clientele for the company's scaling brick and mortar strategy. Categories included sustainable basics, luxury sweaters, Italian leather handbags, and custom printed lounge wear.
