DHM4403 Advanced Apparel Design - Wedding Dress Re-Design
Fall 2021
For this project we were given an old wedding dress and tasked with deconstructing and reconstructing a brand new design. We could only use materials from the existing dress, with exception from trims such as zippers. Below is the concept board made for the presentation, as well as the "Before" and "After" pictures.
Before After
DHM4403 Advanced Apparel Design - Bustier Assignment
Fall 2021
For this project we were tasked with creating a bustier or corset. The purpose was for us to learn boning and use contour principles to create a full form-fitting bodice. My corset has lining, a stabilizing layer with boning, and a tan top layer with custom draped black mesh on the top.
DHM3023 Computer-Aided Flat Pattern Design - Stretch Fabric Project
November 2020
The patterns for these garments were created with the Gerber Accumark programs and are featured on the "Computer-Aided Design" page. For this project we designed, patterned, and constructed a complete look made from knit stretch fabric. I designed this trendy two-piece set with two neutral colored fabrics to bring focus to the white exposed seams.

The patterns for these garments were created with the Gerber Accumark programs and are featured on the "Computer-Aided Design" page. For this project we designed, patterned, and constructed a three-piece children's wear set. I designed this for a 5-year-old as a holiday inspired outfit.

DHM3853 Visual Merchandising - Flagship Store Design
April 2021
For this project we were tasked with creating a virtual mock-up of a flagship store for a brand of our choosing. The store was supposed to represent the core aesthetic of the brand and create and unique experience for potential shoppers. I used SketchUp and Enscape to create this store rendering, as well as Adobe InDesign to create this Design Brief.

February 2021
For this project we were tasked with creating a virtual mock-up of a retail store space. The store was required to meet certain dimensions and square feet while creating a functional retail space. I used MockShop to create this virtual rendering.
DHM2423 Technology and Visual Communication for Merchandisers - Adobe InDesign Mock-Magazine Project
April 2019
For this project we were tasked with creating a mock-up of a September issue of a magazine we created. The images were outsourced and I used Adobe InDesign to create my magazine.
