HELLO!

My name is Van and I am currently a fashion designer based in Seattle, WA. I am Vietnamese born and raised in Vietnam. I graduated from The Art Institute of Seattle in 2014 with a Bachelor of Fine Art in Apparel Design, specializing in womenswear and kidswear.

In the nearly 10 years of my career in apparel design and development, I have been designing and developing products for women and children in categories such as sportswear, sleepwear, and swimwear. Most recently, I held a designer role at Nordstrom on their kids team. I am passionate about building functional and high quality products that would last for years to come.

Aside from being a designer, I am currently working as a community organizer at ReMake, a non-profit organization that focus on fighting for workers right and climate justice in the fashion industry. I look forward to sharing my passion for fashion and sustainability with you - and hope to inspire you to do the same with me.
