​      I work for Polartec as a Product Development Engineer in Chattanooga TN, 'Making the Impossible Possible.' In the spring of 2013 I graduated Philadelphia University with a Bachelor of Science and Textile Design. After graduation I moved to New York City to Intern with SoulCycle and The Style Council for the summer. In the Fall of 2013 I began working for Solaris, a medical knitwear manufacturer in Milwaukee WI. Throughout my first year at Solaris, I split my responsibilities between new product development and knit programming for flat bed and whole garment knitting machines. By my second year I fully took on the role as Knitting Specialist and for 3 months I held the interim role as Director of NPD. I am truly grateful for the challenging experiences I've had thus far as a young professional and look forward to continuing to challenge myself as a designer and textile engineer.
