Since Tomorrow

Founder and CEO

Moore Collective

I have spent the last decade ghostwriting for some of the world's most influential people. After creating dozens of sold-out celebrity and influencer collections for major retailers and direct to consumer, I have developed a predictable, repeatable framework to transform the fashion industry to zero waste with brands that are relevant and unique, standing out in a sea of retail sameness

INSPR

First to market socially driven influencer collections for Macy's.  Concepted and manufactured influencer fashion collections for @natalieoffduty, @brittanyxavier, and @tezza and brought to market within 5 weeks from concept to customer for Macy's and direct to consumer.

Because social feeds and how people look for and consume products are on the verge of changing retail forever.

IconMod 

IconMod is a vertical fashion company that concepts, designs, manufactures, merchandises, markets and sells aspirational celebrity branded‎ fashion exclusively online.   

Founding team member responsible for design, product development, sourcing, production and logistics efforts for apparel, footwear, and accessories.

Created fast fashion model by changing the internal process of decision by committee.  With a strong design and brand point of view, we eliminated 9 months in the development cycle by proceeding directly to salesman samples at factories who have superior pattern making capability (no techpacks!).  Further, the total production leadtime has reduced to 4 weeks by designing into stock fabrics with vertical partners who specialize in capturing design intent quickly.

Successfully launched all brands within 6 weeks of initial concept, managing all aspects of design operations, sourcing, product development, technical design, production, and logistics.  

Notable collaborations: Zendaya's first direct to consumer brand, Irina Shayk x Ellen Tracy, Tamar Braxton, and Jessica Simpson

Gap Inc.

Lead the company's first vertical Product Development / Production team for Gap International's 33 markets, based on its success, went on to lead Gap NA's first vertical team.

Over the last decade, my co-founder and I have been fashion ghost writers for some of the world's biggest celebs such as Rihanna and Zendaya, Instagram influencers, and creators.  

After a decade of creating dozens of high quality, sold-out celebrity and influencer collections, Moore Collective has developed a digital framework oriented towards a creator’s bandwidth and the ever-changing needs of the digital consumer to bring in-demand, high quality content, physical / digital products and experiences to market efficiently, cost effectively and sustainably at the speed of TikTok and through content that entertains.

As both seasoned entrepreneurs and F500 design, merchant, operations and sourcing leaders, we possess the rare ability and decades of loyalty with strategic global vendors to build both boutique and at volume end-to-end sourcing strategies within the same supply chain to scale lifestyle brands for creators.

We have been repeatedly recruited as change agents to restructure internal design operations and external supply chains, we are known in the industry for bringing a bar-raising fashion product development ability to ensure the needs of on trend, high-quality, on margin product are met through constant communication and collaboration with direct management of the end-to-end value chain.
