Plush Manufacturing
Having done overseas manufacturing for over five years, I expanded my list of products to include plush toys in 2024. Beginning with a technical sheet and references, I started prototyping with a selected vendor.
After several months of adjustments and certification testing, the plush was approved for full production. This was a great introduction to textile toy design with multi-part accessories for me. Since this design, I’ve led two more plush projects.

enamel pin
In 2018, I started manufacturing enamel pins with overseas factories through Alibaba. In the last 6 years, I’ve produced over 70 designs with a variety of specialty techniques such as stained glass, spinner, slider, internal cuts, screen printing, and more.
Each pin comes with a custom backing card that’s designed for the pin’s theme, as well as a templatized back design for brand consistency.
risograph
Miscellaneous risograph prints that were set up according to vendor requirements through channel separations, clipping masks, and meticulous file organization.
