@kyairamitchell
I create custom draperies and bring hands-on textile dyeing, sewing, and client service experience.
What I'm looking for
I create custom draperies at Holland and Sherry, turning client orders into finished pieces with careful attention to color, pattern matching, fabric texture, and craftsmanship.
I operate sergers, blind hemmers, and pleaters, adjust needle pressure for different fabrics, hand-sew edges, and construct interior accessories including pillow covers and throw blankets.
Previously, I supported Holland and Sherry clients by phone and email, generating quotes, checking stock, placing orders, reviewing sales reports, and collaborating with sales teams to meet delivery needs.
At the Maryland Institute College of Art, I maintained dye lab equipment and materials, managed dye and pigment samples, and assisted with textile dyeing processes while following safety and environmental procedures. I’m continuing to hone my craft in textiles and customer service.
