Throughout my career at 3D Systems, I’ve had the privilege of collaborating with wearable designers from around the world, working on pioneering projects that blend technology, fashion, and function. Partnering with industry giants like New Balance, I’ve contributed to developing flexible midsoles, and I’ve collaborated with visionary fashion designers such as Iris Van Herpen and United Nude to bring forward-thinking couture to life. Many of these creations have been showcased on prestigious international stages, including Milan Fashion Week, and some of the manufacturing workflows I helped innovate were even featured on Project Runway.
Starting my career with a strong focus on medical devices, I initially designed wearable solutions that not only stabilized injured joints but also integrated embedded sensors to provide users with real-time feedback on joint alignment and movement.
As my expertise in soft goods and wearables expanded, I transitioned to the 3D Systems regenerative medicine team. Here, I contributed to designing custom foam structures that simulate the properties of various human soft tissues, exploring the lines between wearable devices and implantable devices.
This intersection of bioengineering, health, and fashion continues to drive my work, pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in wearable technology.
