Creative Pattern Cutter

Summary

Creative pattern cutter with ten years of experience in Paris and London. I am currently looking for a new professional adventure. I have strong skills and excel in turning creative designs into wearable garments. I am known for being fast and accurate in my work. My experience was built by working with various companies which offer different garment ranges, from luxury to mid rang and fast fashion.


I am a good team player and I know that communication and listening are key for a good workflow and best results. Therefore, I believe I can fit without difficulties in a new work environment.
