Profile statement
I have worked in the fashion industry as a head designer for over 15 years, those of which have provided me with great insight into the business of fashion, and the energy and waste that is generated through this industry. These insights have provided me with inspiration to study for an MA in Sustainable Fashion (online) at Falmouth University. The course has been very insightful, in terms of wanting to create system changes, for a new fashion paradigm.
