about me

I am a concept and apparel designer who specializes in close-to-body categories, such as intimates and swimwear. I am passionate about storytelling, aesthetics and culture. My designs and ideas are mindful and trend-setting.

A graduate of Cornell University, I started my career at Calvin Klein Underwear where I rose from assistant to associate designer. At CKU I was lucky enough to be involved in everything from color, concept and brand DNA to prints, graphics, fabric and silhouettes as well as special projects and speed-to-market tests.

I left Calvin to pursue my love of swimwear as a Designer for Target’s Xhileration line at InMocean. I lead trend direction and concept and designed monthly fashion drops in a fast paced environment. The team was small and experienced some turnover during my time, so I had the opportunity to step up as an interim senior designer and lead the team through a successful annual kick off and first season.

Currently, I am the design lead for Playboy Lingerie, a new venture under the iconic lifestyle brand which launched in November of 2022. During my year here I’ve grown the category from the ground up, working on mens, women’s and swim. Since the lingerie launch I’ve begun managing the core fleece and knits programs, as well as sweaters for both men’s and women’s. It has been incredibly rewarding to be a huge part in building a brand and branching out into new categories.

I am a lifelong learner who is constantly looking to advance my skills and try new things as I am consistently fascinated by the world around me.
