I have been professionally designing licensed product for 13 years.
I spent 7 years designing Halloween Costumes & the past 5 years designing Cut & Sew Apparel for Men, Women, Juniors, Youth, & recently started developing baby onesies. I also design accessories as you will see in the Gaming & Halloween Project pages.

Many of my designs have been sold in retail stores such as Target, Walmart, Party City, Forever 21, Hot Topic, Box Lunch, Think Geek, Justice, etc.

I have a great understanding of product development & keeping designs within a price point. I have worked directly with factories in different countries & even visited one while developing a line with them. 

Been a featured designer in numerous local fashion events & have been published in local magazines & other news outlets.
I'm an eclectic person & adapt to any challenge set forth.
I am loyal to the companies I have worked for & strive to contribute as a great asset to any design team.
