Resume
I'm a fashion writer and creative strategist drawn to the stories behind what people wear, buy, and care about. My work sits at the intersection of fashion, culture, travel, and identity, translating trends and cultural shifts into compelling narratives. With experience across editorial, public relations, and brand storytelling, I bring both a journalist's curiosity and a strategist's perspective to every project.
