Killing Them With Cleanness

Innovative and detail-oriented Designer with expertise in menswear, product development, and apparel construction. Adept at creating tech packs, solving fit issues, and collaborating cross-functionally to streamline production. Proficient in Adobe Illustrator, Gerber Accumark, and PLM systems. Employing a method both consultive and collaborative, I leverage trend, high-fashion intel, concept development, guts and creativity to create on-trend apparel product that clients actually WANT.&nbsp;&nbsp;I work as a culturally dexterous self-starter who skillfully leverages creativity to produce visually exciting and comprehensive design ideas with grounded clarity and focus on the original “big idea” and the concepts which created them.&nbsp;Additionally,&nbsp;I balance&nbsp;multiple projects, schedules and deadlines while collaborating cross-functionally across team environments.

OG Streetwear brand incorporated in 1999 and started by Jonas Bevacqua and Robert Wright specializing in men’s lifestyle apparel, skateboarding &  innovative co-branded product design;  L-R-G is a company designed to overthrow the masses by our influence. Our slogan is simple, “underground inventive, overground effective”​. At L-R-G we want to focus on the ones that are trying to pay their rent with their passions. Think of us as a support group for the independent and underground culture. We’re trying to put the spotlight where we think it really belongs, because it is much more than clothing and concepts. It is a way of living. L-R-G, innovative essence for the above average person.
