Hey, I’m Sarah.

I help empower the collaborative fashion workforce through inspired customer research and refreshing creative design.

My Approach

Collaborative

Collaboration is a necessity in every business. I believe that the most effective design takes place in an environment that allows for conversation and positive friction. Support is an integral part of this type of workplace. When a team works together under a growth mindset, the success of every individual is obvious; the resulting product is also highly successful.

Inspired

I take an inspired approach to design that considers your customer’s reason for buying. With great consumer empathy, putting together concepts and pitching product always considers the current business sentiment, and the future of the customer. Designing clear collections that elicit emotion through color, detail, pattern, and trims encourage the customer to buy at a consistent rate.

TECHNICAL SKETCHING

YOUNG WOMEN’S/ WOMEN’S RTW

Operating for the past six years in a full scale commercial design role, technical sketching is imperative for product hand off and vendor accuracy. Adobe Suite Programs, Browzewear, and PLM are familiar necessities to my success in the professional design world.

FORECASTING AND CONCEPTING

YOUNG WOMEN’S/ WOMEN’S RTW

One of my favorite parts of the product life cycle is the brainstorm and concept process. Understanding key trend and color; and pulling together outfitting messages visually makes for a clear strategy season over season.
