Upholstery & Sculpture
Torhamvan/Ferryland
by Donald Lawrence, created for a solo exhibition curated by Jenifer Papararo at the Contemporary Art Gallery, Vancouver BC, 2005
It was an extreme honour to work as Don’s assistant to help bring his art to life: a sculptural recreation of ship wreckage, that was built on campus at Thompson Rivers University in Kamloops BC, then transported and reassembled inside the Contemporary Art Gallery in Vancouver BC.
Womenswear Design, Voleurz
As the womenswear designer for Voleurz, I completed technical designs and oversaw production of multi-seasonal projects while working alongside the menswear team, and travelling twice annually to Hong Kong for factory liaison duties as well as fabric sourcing, and sample adjustments via Tech Pack illustrations and hands-on fittings.

Social Media Marketing
Completion of Meta’s Introduction to Social Media Marketing via Coursera is a valuable augmentation to my extensive experience with social media marketing via my brands Ora Leather Goods and Aro Upholstery. I look forward to integrating new skills and progressing within this realm of marketing, and applying this education and experience to future projects as well.
