Hi I'm Bon
Thank you for visiting my portfolio!
Introduction
Hello,
​
Thank you for taking the time to look over my portfolio! I am a designer with specialization in a few areas in the development of product!
​
My deep interest in the fashion industry started with my younger self using clothes donated to me and creating new clothes from the clothing to give myself that sense of pride with having something made for me by me, from there I nurtured this passion which led me to receive a great scholarship to the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising San Francisco where I got the opportunity to develop the needed skills to achieve success within the fashion industry
​
My education created a great foundation for me to leap into my professional career and grow as a designer, which i am absolutely grateful for.
I am a person who is obsessed with developing product, when it comes to design I poses skills that can be applied in different avenues such as design, pattern making, fit development, and sourcing for the product. Being a creative i am naturally an person who is introverted but I love the process of getting to know my collogues and fostering a great relationship! Overall my mission as a professional is to make sure my team and I are empowered as much as possible to achieve our goals or even surpass them while having a great time doing!
​
My Hobbies
I have a few hobbies related to fashion since I absolutely love it. a hobby of mine is going to clothing stores to do fit research and see what's new in terms of fit and try on my friends and I to do a quick fit session and see if there is anything that could've been improved and quickly measure the product without raising suspicion lol. From there I developed a spec sheet, pattern make the revisions and construct the product digitally to see my change and then construct the other graded sizes. While i do this I go make construction pages, and all needed info to manufacture the product even though I will never send the product for samples or bulk but I find it entertaining. ​

​
-take my dogs out to walks or dog meets
It is such a nice way to maintain my dogs socialization and a great way to make friends who have a common love for their pets
​
-go biking on nice trails I love nature
I LOVE being in nature there is just something about seeing the sunlight filter through he trees that has made me fall in love with it. I love to travel to different countries and make it a point to bike in their unique nature trails
​
​
-3D mold accessories and other random creative ideas
CLO and Vstitcher should be enough for me but my creativity has no bounds, I love to develop characters, hard goods, and house designs for fun. Its a bit out of the fashion realm but its a pretty cool hobby
​
-explore new places across the state
Enrichment activities are fun to do with friends and family so I love to make a occasion specific playlist get in my car talk with my friends and family to try some new food, see some road side attraction, or go to a view and just hang out for the day /
​
-I try to visit a new cafe or bakery one a week to CAD pattern make and try their stuff out
Pattern making in a cafe is a conversation starter and usually the ones who initiate conversations are others who have an interest in the fashion industry so it leads to great conversation on our personal passions
