What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role where I can lead product development and production, work with collaborative teams and vendors, and drive quality-focused, timely delivery for growth-oriented fashion brands.

I am a qualified and passionate Fashion Merchandiser from Jaipur with hands-on experience leading new product development, creating detailed tech packs, and managing end-to-end production from sample creation to final dispatch. I have driven R&D for product lines, maintained quality-control systems, managed TNA reports and cost sheets, and coordinated with vendors, fabricators, and dyers to ensure timely, high-quality delivery.

My background includes roles as NPD Head / Senior Merchandiser, Garment Merchandiser, and Junior Merchandiser, with strengths in garment measurements, pattern making, fabric sourcing and testing, visual merchandising, and social media management for fashion. I seek to contribute my technical merchandising skills and production leadership to forward-thinking fashion brands to deliver impactful product results.
