DIGITAL PRODUCT
CREATION
Digital product creation (DPC) has revolutionized the fashion industry. From sustainability to speed, DPC has many advantages. Over the past 4 years, I have worked within 3D software to implement digital transformations and prove 3D as a working concept for commercial apparel. My main focus has been to produce true-to-life photo realistic garments (like the one to the right) that can represent a true digital double.
PRODUCTS THAT TELL A STORY
Over the past years I've had the opportunity to work with professional athletes, Olympians, and influencers to create meaningful product that tells a story beyond the garments themself. Often these stories center around events or social causes. Throughout my career I have worked with or helped to create product for the following athletes: The Rock, Cam Newton, Ryan Garcia, Chris Bumstead, David Laid, Yaz Stevens, Asha Phillip, James Newbury, & Rob Kearney

Thanks for checking out my online portfolio.
I take pride in the work I've done and love to showcase that work for industry, family and friends to see. Originally born and raised in North Carolina, I'm now working for Gymshark in the United Kingdom. I've been in the apparel industry for 12 years now and have a unique background. I'm a versatile designer that has both experience in apparel design, technical design and 3D digital product creation. While my current focus is sportswear, I've worked on apparel products ranging from men's suiting to women's lingerie. Outside of work, I'm an adventurer at heart. I enjoy traveling, hiking, biking, music festivals and anything outdoors.
