About

I'm Gini, a fashion professional with 6+ years of experience across fashion design, product development, sourcing, buying, and merchandising. Founder of a sustainable clothing brand established in 2021, with hands-on expertise in end-to-end product lifecycle management, supplier and vendor management, ethical sourcing, and quality control. I enjoy working at the intersection of craft, commerce, and sustainability—from collaborating with artisan supply chains to building commercially viable, responsibly made collections that resonate with global markets. A few tiny feathers in my hat, being named a HerCircle Bizruptor of 2024, recognising me as a woman entrepreneur reshaping the future, dressed an Emmy award winner, got featured across publications and bagged a Master's in Fashion Management from NIFT. Open to opportunities across fashion design, buying, and sustainable fashion within global and UK-based brands.
