Welcome to my portfolio! I am a recent graduate with a Bachelor of Science in Fiber Science from Cornell University, coupled with a Minor in Entrepreneurship. Passionate about the intersection of textile science and design, my academic journey has been an odyssey of exploration into the limitless possibilities within the field. From hands-on research experiences at the NanoFibers and NanoTextiles Lab, where I delved into the electrospinning of nanofibers for sustainable medical nanotextiles, to contributing to green operations and design at Coach and Nike, my endeavors reflect a commitment to weaving together technical proficiency and creative expression.
My multifaceted background extends beyond academia, with design roles at Cornell Fashion Collective and Dawang New York, showcasing my ability to seamlessly bridge material science and creative innovation. Entrepreneurship has been a constant thread in my journey, evident in winning the 2023 Entrepreneurship hackathon and pursuing a Minor in Entrepreneurship at Cornell.
As I embark on the next chapter, I am driven by a vision of leveraging technical textile industry knowledge to create sustainable solutions that positively impact the human experience. Sitting at the crossroads of material science, design, and entrepreneurship, I bring a unique perspective, integrating problem-solving skills, and diverse points of view. Join me on this exciting journey of innovation, where every fiber contributes to a tapestry of positive change!
