Design & Development Consulting

From concept to production — hands-on, strategic, and rooted in craft.

With a background shaped by LA’s garment industry, I bring deep respect for the full product lifecycle and the people behind it. As a design and development consultant, I help brands create thoughtful, well-made products through a collaborative, end-to-end process.

Whether you're launching a new line, scaling your team, or building branded merchandise, I can plug in where you need support most — from early concepting to production problem-solving.
