I am a quiet natured big thinker with 18 years of experience working in the apparel industry. I’ve pioneered and designed some of the most successful franchises in the activewear market as well as highly technologically advanced team sports uniforms. Tinkering, experimenting, challenging what’s possible. “Wouldn’t it be cool if…”. That’s where I like to live. While I’ve been able to successfully navigate the fast pace of the apparel industry, I believe that for a really good idea to become a great one, it needs time to evolve, which is, in part, why I enjoy revisiting designs, styles, trims, and businesses, with the hope of finding a way to reimagine it.

If I’m reimagining a great new world, there’s a good chance that I’m doing it outside. I love to be outdoors, playing tennis, enjoying nature or the city. I can also appreciate a good streaming binge when the day (weekend) calls for it.

Thanks for checking out my page! Hope to work with you soon.
