I’m a former Big Four accountant who traded spreadsheets for sketch pads. Today, a trained fashion designer and seasoned instructor with deep expertise across every facet of the industry: creative design, technical pattern-making, garment construction, and the business of fashion.
My journey in brief:
- Dual degrees in Economics and Fashion Design
- Ex-accountant at a Big Four firm: Developed a sharp eye for numbers, strategy, and process; skills I now apply to building sustainable fashion businesses
- Industry insider: Hands-on roles with retailers, garment manufacturers, and fashion entrepreneurship.
Why I teach
At Martwayne, I’ve guided hundreds of students, online and in person, helping them launch labels, create jobs, and transform their passion into a career.
Fashion isn’t just about beautiful garments; it’s a vehicle for personal and economic empowerment. I blend:
Technical mastery: From drafting your first block to flawless seams.
Business acumen: Pricing strategy, market positioning, and brand building.
Real-world insights: Lessons from my Big Four days and frontline fashion experience.
On Udemy, I bring together hands-on tutorials that demystify the technical side of making clothes. Join me, and let’s turn your love for fashion into a viable business.
