Profile

________________________________
Natural surroundings and botanical verdure provide me with endless ideas and inspiration. Profusions of rich colour from floral elements embrace my designs, a deep hue in which I often combine a muted and delicate colour pallet to complement the project theme. I have a passion for digitally printed fabrics which are usually translated into ideas for fashion fabrics. I am an enthusiastic designer with the ability to meet tight deadlines. I am focused and I always embrace new challenges. I am a hardworking, committed, self-motivated and an organized individual with the ability to work independently and confidently.
