ABOUT
Currently, I am a Senior Designer of Color and Materials at ECCO, a Danish footwear company. I lead North America SMUs and support the global seasonal footwear line, blending market-specific insights with ECCO’s innovative and sustainable design philosophy. Based in New York City, I travel regularly to ECCO's headquarters in Denmark to collaborate closely with the product team and ensure alignment across global and regional design initiatives. My work bridges storytelling, material innovation, and functional design across multiple categories—helping shape the brand’s presence both regionally and globally.
Previously, I was a Color and Materials Designer for Men's and Women's Performance Footwear at Cole Haan in Manhattan. I worked closely with cross-functional partners (FW Design, PD, and PM) to expand Cole Haan's presence in the performance space. I independently managed color and material design for the performance business unit—covering Running, Golf, and Fitness—while collaborating with fellow C+M designers to build seasonal palettes, tools, and overarching stories that unified the entire line.
Before moving to New York, I was the North America SMU Designer at ASICS in Boston, where I created footwear across all categories, with a specialization in limited-pair collaborations and Run Specialty account exclusives. In 2020, I was the lead designer for the brand's high-profile KITH releases—Super Blue, Olympic Pack, and The Palette (Wall of 30)—all of which sold out within minutes. I also had the pleasure of partnering with many other collaboration accounts, which has given me the opportunity to refine my communication, adaptability, and problem-solving skills while working with diverse teams across the industry and design disciplines.
Born and raised in the Greater Boston Area, I'm a multi-faceted designer with a background in technical design with a sharp eye for color and materials. I studied Apparel Design & Textiles and General Business at The University of Alabama, graduating Summa Cum Laude.
I’m obsessed with breakfast, integrating fitness into my workday, and designing products that push the industry toward a more sustainable future. My aesthetic is functional and classic, my favorite color is yellow, and kindness is always a priority.
