My love for fashion, art and being creative started at the age of 12. I have an Associates degree in Fashion (from FIT (NYC) and POLIMODA (Florence, Italy)) and over 16 years of experience in the fas... hion industry. I have trained and led several design teams during my career, creating successful collections and I have built my sustainable brand - RTW and activewear that I produced in Bali, so I am well versed in marketing/brand identity and sourcing too. I am proficient in Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop (and other programs), so I have strong knowledge on how to set up a detailed, manufacture-ready Tech Packs - (flat sketches, labels, call outs, fabrics, cads for presentation, mood boards, trend books, simple graphics, color stories, textile patterns and washes etc.. Bringing stories to life). I traveled worldwide for market research and worked closely with manufacturers to ensure great looking samples, fitting, and production, I understand garment construction. I am also a content creator/video streamer on YouTube for: starting your fashion business, here you can see a little more of my experience: https://www.youtube.com/@meilinrohrer1000 . And I love to TEACH! <3 read more

Hi! I'm Meilin and I grew up basically all over the world (Indonesia, India, Kenya, Argentina, Switzerland, Ecuador, Sri Lanka, and more), because my father worked in hotels. This exposure to cultures... , religions, ways of living, traditions, and so on, has enriched me with the capability to understand free of judgment and to have patience, to stay grounded in changing, unpredictable times, and to show compassion. I graduated from Fashion Institute of Technology in NYC with a degree in Fashion Design and I spent 16 years in this industry, training and leading various design teams and successfully creating seasonal collections including having my own sustainable brand (RTW and activewear). I love sharing my knowledge and guiding creative minds. I am also a content creator/video streamer on YouTube for: starting your fashion business, this is a free channel - you're welcome to visit: https://www.youtube.com/@meilinrohrer1000 . I can help you from learning how to sketch using free hand or Adobe Illustrator to understanding garment construction to building a fashion brand and so much more. I also volunteered for about 5 years at Matahari Terbit Center - a non-profit center for underprivileged children with cerebral palsy, in Bali. I was involved in every step from teaching English, organizing lesson plans to heading all marketing, funding, and creating their newsletters. This experience is what cemented my desire to foster students’ development, continue to establish meaningful relationships and to empower and encourage children and adults alike with tools to succeed. That's also when I decided to complete my TEFL certificate to be able to teach English, all levels in a fun and motivating way. I speak fluent Spanish, a little German and Italian. I love traveling and the outdoors, Muay Thai training, playing soccer, volcano hiking, writing poetry, and being surrounded by friends and family.read more
