Global Design Director / Winter | 02/2013 - 08/2021
Creativity, Communication, and Leadership are the 3 factors of success in my role as Global Design Director. My priority was to create modern concepts that encompass the brands DNA by way of style, innovation, quality, and performance. It's the communication of those ideas, utilizing global feedback, that allow the vision to manifest into a product. Many decisions must be made in the development cycle and doing so requires organization, time management, and the ability to lead and inspire each product team member throughout the creative journey.
