C O N T A C T A B O U T M E
12 Downland Way, Durrington, I am a second year Fashion Design student at Nottingham Trent
Salisbury, Wiltshire University, currently taking a year out in industry to further develop the
SP4 8BX relevant skills and knowledge necessary before my final year. Whilst
studying here, I have gained confidence in pattern cutting, garment
(+44) 7511782573 construction, and Computer Aided Design; in addition to having a very
strong understanding in collecting the relevant contextual research and
yasmingorman@yahoo.co.uk following trend predictions. I have a strong competitive drive with every
endevour in which I set myself the task of completing, which is enhanced

During my my second year at university I was on two cheerleading
squads, requiring a lot of dedication and commitment which I feel is
something I reflect in all aspects of my life, this is especially highlighted in
E D U C A T I O N my work, as I am very self motivated and hard working. Both strong
interpersonal skills and the ability to organise myself are among my
BA(Hons) Fashion Design highest qualities.
