Dear Dweet team,
My enthusiasm for fashion steered me towards a career path in Textile and Clothing Engineering. I subsequently pursued a Masters in Milan, specializing in Brand and Product Management with the hope of being a part of the global fashion industry, with the view to contributing my knowledge and expertise to leading fashion brands.
During my Textile and Clothing Engineering studies, I specialized in natural and synthetic fibers, yarn manufacturing, fabric development including knitting and weaving technologies, yarn dyeing, fabric dyeing, printing and finishing, garment treatments, chemical and physical quality testing and quality management.
In addition, I have a solid understanding of the construction of garments and I amassed experience of following product development from design to production as well as experience of working with International and Italian fashion brands.
Masters studies have helped me to expand my knowledge on research methods for fashion trends, global brands and products analysis, risk analysis, fashion projects management as well as capsule collection development. I have successfully completed individual field projects and group field projects where I have efficiently collaborated with the groups of people from multicultural backgrounds. I also led the teams confidently and strategically to achieve the goals collectively.
Furthermore, I have great communications skills and am fluent in written and spoken English. I am also capable of communicating effectively in Italian.
I am very passionate about traveling for business purposes. I possess an Italian Republic Identity Card, Residence/Work Permit and Driving License.
I am responsible, resourceful and reliable. I have excellent organizational skills and am a keen problem solver who enjoys adapting to new challenges and environments, which are improved through academics, industrial experience as well as being a passionate sportsman.
I have experience of managing work on-time with tight deadlines within the fast-paced fashion environment.
Hence I am very inspired and motivated to share how I will build upon my experiences so far to be a great fit for a exciting Italian fashion house.
Yours sincerely,
Chamath Keshara
