What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead fabric sourcing, development and innovation for global fashion brands, partnering with suppliers and cross-functional teams to deliver quality, cost and lead-time objectives.

At PVH, I lead fabric sourcing and development for Tommy Hilfiger and Calvin Klein across EMEA and Far East regions. I manage a portfolio of approximately 70 active fabric suppliers and mills while balancing quality, cost and lead-time objectives.

I collaborate with design, merchandising and product development teams from concept to commercialization, coordinating seasonal fabric developments through SAP and PLM systems. I also source innovative fabric qualities through supplier visits and international textile fairs.

Previously, I managed Far East fabric R&D at LC Waikiki and led fabric sourcing and development at Koton across EMEA and Far East markets.

My background in Textile Engineering and experience across Roman, BGN and Intertek have built my capability in supplier management, raw material development, negotiations and international sourcing.
