Summary
A young lady full of energy, eager to learn more about Fashion and everything related to it.
I grew up in Portugal, where I fell in love with Photography and Silversmithing. Later on, I decided to develop Jewellery, and I learned many techniques, that I’m still developing at the moment in the UK.
I have excellent CAD skills, good knowledge of InDesign and Rhinoceros 3D mainly, but enjoy working with Photoshop and Illustrator as well.
I have a background working in Calzedonia, where I gained a lot of experience, from dealing with the customers, opening and closing down the store, using tills, learn selling techniques, etc. I also took an internship in Fashion Styling at The Wonderland Magazine, where I expanded my knowledge on clothing/ accessories brands.
I think I could be a good asset for your business, and I will use all my passion and all my experience to show you my commitment and my eager to learn and develop.
