Choice Apparel LLC, a custom outerwear company, I owned and operated for six years. It began as demands from athletes and friends, complaining of outerwear not fitting how they liked, and coming to me to sew them custom pieces. This evolved into a larger demand once these athletes started appearing in ski movies wearing my handmade garments. The orders started coming in, and the company was born. I kept the brand completely US based and eventually mass manufactured in a factory in Denver, CO. I contracted a production facility to reproduce my custom designs in larger numbers. Success from Choice Apparel can be seen in the movies of Poor Boy's Production, Level 1, STEPT, and has been in Freeskier Magazine, Newschoolers, and other media outlets. Choice Apparel LLC developed the Salomon Pro Team line for European X games and collaborated with other smaller companies. Choice Apparel LLC had its own team of athletes, marketing, and social media presence, and was sold both online and in stores. As the only employee and owner, I successfully ran and operated CA for six years before the dissolution in 2013 for personal reasons. Skills included; Pattern design, manufacturing, fabrics, sales accounts, managing athletes, marketing, budgeting, web development, and design.
