I've spent 20 years leading design for outdoor, cycling and snow brands, from Pearl Izumi to Spyder, Tommy Hilfiger Alpine, Billabong Snow and the Aspen Collection. Now I work directly with brands and design teams that need an experienced director's eye without adding a full-time executive.
A senior design director on your team part time. I lead the line, run design reviews, mentor your designers and connect design with product, merchandising and sales. Monthly retainer or project-based.
Seasonal color stories built for performance product, grounded in forecast research and years of translating trend into what sells. Palettes, material, print and finish direction for apparel, footwear, helmets and hardgoods.
A second set of experienced eyes on the product itself. I review line plans, tech packs and construction, and help solve the fit and function problems that stall a season.
One-on-one coaching for designers stepping into leadership, and for leaders building stronger teams. From a Camber Outdoors Senior Mentor and former adjunct professor.
Workshops for design teams and talks for events and schools: running design reviews that build people up, leading creative teams through change, and letting go of perfection.
Tell me what's getting in the way and I'll suggest the right fit. The first 30-minute call is free, and every project gets a short proposal with scope, timeline and pricing.
Working with brands and design teams in person along the Front Range and remotely anywhere. I'll reply within two business days.
