I am a driven, enthusiastic 25-year-old designer living in Milan. Due to a wide range
of past experiences I have a number of skills that would benefit a creative office.
Working my way from the shop floor at Cinch (Levi’s Vintage) and Stone Island store
London, to a senior designer position at Stone Island, I have gained an extensive
understanding of many aspects of the business. I completed a four year degree at
London’s Central Saint Martin College in June 2011, resulting in my work being
shown in the Press Show, and receiving a number of articles in the press, including
ID magazine and The Evening Standard. I am always open to learning and seeking
new opportunities and experiences.

Past Experiences
Stone Island
June 2011 – Present
I am currently working as a senior designer and responsible for all aspects of the
Stone Island collection: graphics, pattern, jersey, sweatshirt, shirt, trousers and
shoulder pieces (outerwear). I started this role as a junior designer working on
accessories, denim and graphics. After one season I took the responsibility of the
categories: shirts, t-shirts, polo shirts and sweatshirts. After three seasons I took on
the responsibilities of all remaining categories, working on the whole collection. This
includes designing all aspect of the collection, developing and constructing new
fabrics and fabric treatments from the beginning, visiting suppliers, passing technical
drawings to the pattern makers, fitting garments and defecting prototypes before
launching them to production. This also includes extensive travel and continuous
research. At the end of the season it is also my responsibility to present the collection
to the clients and agents.
