PLM & Fashion Technology Consulting

Help fashion and consumer product businesses improve how they manage product data, workflows, and technology. Support can include PLM process assessments, requirements gathering, workflow mapping, implementation planning, user adoption, and cross-functional alignment.

Best for: fashion brands, technology providers, and teams implementing or improving PLM systems.

Sustainability & Responsible Innovation

Help teams explore opportunities to integrate sustainability into product development, business processes, and decision-making. This may include sustainability-focused research, opportunity assessments, and recommendations for more responsible ways of working.

Best for: brands and founders seeking a more intentional approach to products, systems, and innovation.

Product & Business Strategy

Turn an early idea or complex challenge into a clearer plan. Support can include research, concept development, prioritization, customer discovery planning, and mapping practical next steps from idea to execution.

Best for: founders, independent professionals, and teams exploring new products or services.

Creative & Product Design

Selective freelance support informed by a background in fashion design and product development. Depending on project fit, this may include concept development, visual design, design assets, and product development materials.

Best for: select creative projects where design and product thinking intersect.

Office Hours

A focused conversation to help you figure out your next move.

Office Hours are paid, one-on-one, 30-minute strategy sessions for people looking to pivot, grow, or break into fashion technology—or explore a new direction in their careers and entrepreneurial journeys.

Drawing on my experience across fashion, product development, PLM, and fashion technology, I offer practical guidance tailored to where you are and where you want to go.

Topics may include:

  • Career pivots into fashion technology and PLM
  • Resume and LinkedIn positioning
  • Interview preparation and career strategy
  • Navigating the fashion-tech industry
  • Entrepreneurship, early-stage ideas, and founder conversations

Bring a question, a challenge, or an idea you're trying to work through. We'll use our time to clarify your options and identify practical next steps.
