ABOUT MY POSITION
At GUESS?, my main responsibility was to create technical CADs in Illustrator for Women’s and Men’s S/S
& F/W 2023 lines. In addition to sketching, I updated line sheets before cross functional buy meetings, went comp shopping to scope out competitor brands, applied trend research on customer behavior to source mood imagery, colors, styles, and prints for inspiration, and chose fabrics and prints from GUESS's warehouse archives to build off of for future seasons.

While working at GUESS? Inc. I collaborated closely with two talented designers, Cindy Lazo and Illy Guzman (see below). Alongside them, I also worked with Bill McCoy and Patrick Hidalgo (Graphics), Viri Ramirez (Active) , and Tati De Andrade (Denim). I'm so grateful that I got to learn and grow under their guidance in such a warm and creative environment.
