What I'm looking for

I'm looking for a collaborative, professional, and experimental role where I can combine visual merchandising, fashion design, sales-focused presentation, and efficient retail operations.

I've supported Uniqlo's high-pressure retail environment by applying efficient, high-quality processes to logistics and communication. As a Senior Visual Merchandiser, I balance sales targets with appealing marketing assets and presentations, using art and design to solve creative problems collaboratively.

My fashion design training at Richard Robinson Fashion Design Academy complements hands-on experience in retail, hospitality, and summer-camp coordination. I bring visual and online merchandising, graphic design, digital media creation, retail management, customer service, tailoring, and sewing skills, and I'm fluent in English and Spanish.
