Description

I help fashion and lifestyle brands streamline their sourcing and production planning, ensuring projects run smoothly, on time, and within budget. With hands-on experience managing purchasing and production for luxury brands, I bring proven expertise in coordinating suppliers, optimizing lead times, and keeping complex projects on track.

Typical projects I handle include:

Supplier research and selection for fabrics, trims, and finished goods.

Production planning, from order placement to delivery coordination.

Multi-supplier project management, ensuring timelines and budgets are met.

Strategic advice for brands scaling operations without compromising quality or efficiency.

I work closely with emerging and established brands looking for structured, reliable sourcing and production processes—bringing the rigor of luxury industry standards to every project.
