A passion for creativity, compassion and integrity with a strong work ethic aiming for perfection

I have a passion for dealing with people and am self motivated and highly target driven in a sales environment on . Awakening, confidence in my clients for everyday or special events. With previous experience in forming a unique representation for corporate wear through the designing and manufacturing of office wear for businesses, assisting with the fundamental’s, branding and functionality of even the basic uniforms all around . Having a vast knowledge of the sales and fashion industry with a broad experience in fashion, from retail and the manufacturing thereof as well as developing longstanding relationship’s with individuals creating stylised garments based on upcoming fashion forecasts and trends with careful thought in accordance to individual body types. I am always greatly enthusiastic, dedicated to giving 110percent, willing to over achieve and gain as much knowledge on each project that is available to me. My strong point within fashion as a whole would have to be my designing ability to be able to create wearable ‘art’ is what I aim to perfect. Understanding my clients, their business and exactly what they need from me as a designer is my key to delivering more than was expected to begin with. My career to date has seen me gain tremendous exposure in Coordination and Event management as well as a strong foundation and still a frequent interaction based on sales and client relationships . I have also been keeping abreast of the changing dynamic in marketing trends since 2000 to present. I have considerable knowledge running activations, exhibitions and/or conferences. Many years of experience has taught me that big events and small events present many opportunities for nuisance variables to occur. To this end I have found that a common success factor is an attention to detail, given to fulfilling the choreography of each individual event. In light of the above it is essential that ensuring every person knows their part, and when to perform is communicated and executed. As a result my various customers have seen and understood what they are purchasing, as well as appreciated the added value and benefits in deliverables. Doing so keeping a strong communication and explaining how they will have to logistically prepare to ensure a more than satisfactory delivery on the project. My confidence comes from knowing your business; knowing your customer knowing how to ensure everyone is sold on the outcomes of the promise, both internal team members and potential target markets. Attention to Detail is a KEY Driver for myself !! Personality: I am outgoing, ambitious, incredibly creative and love interacting with people. I believe in myself and I am humble enough to know that my success comes from knowing your business before entering into verbal dialogue. Emphasis must be placed on dedicated research before embarking on projects and or presentations! Meaning in a nutshell; when I start anything new I work harder than ever to really understand the product or service we are delivering. This means that I will have confidence that I will convey the detail and the benefits to all of personalities and customers.
