Summary

I am a woman of many talents wIth a diversity of backgrounds that have demonstrated my character as a Detailed-oriented team player, but mostly a leader who thinks big and goes after her dreams and puts plans into actions. I'm capable of handling multiple projects simultaneously with a high degree of accuracy. My goal is to seek and maintain a part-time position of up to 10 hours a week that offers a professional respectful workspace where I can utilise my interpersonal skills, along with my excellent time management and problem-solving skills. During the creation of my brand BAD KITTY clothing . I’m available weekends or two days during the week due to a heavy work load that I've been working on since last July. As rewarding it has been it is also heavily time consuming developing and building a brand and fashion line from the ground up. I believe I would be suitable to an employer that is flexible with their hours and whom is not looking to hire a full time employee.

Work History

Fashion Designer. Brand Owner.

BAD KITTY. Fierce Attire. By T.D & Albert Bertini
07.2022 - Current
  • Since the closure of my business of Cake Casa as of March 2020 . I had to regretfully close due to the covid pandemic. I started working for a luxury car automotive specialist doing reception work. It was easy work and back in those days, it was not easy to find work. I was fortunate enough to find any work in those dreadful times and so I accepted the role with GTO engineering . My background in fashion and design has always been my number one choice career path. I studied a bachelor degree of Applied Branded Fashion & Illustrations at Billy Blue College of Design in North Sydney from 2011 - 2013. It has always been a childhood dream to create something wonderful for the world to appreciate. And So, it was destined to become a reality one day. and has always been on the cards for me.
  • This time last year I created my own fashion label BAD KITTY, I also designed a few designs for JESVIL For Tommy Lee & A.B's own celebrity fashion label which will be launching worldwide end of this year. Mr Bertini believed in my vision and was impressed with my Brand and concept of the BAD KITTY brand . after this, I was approached by multiple investors and attracted the eyes of world famous HELLO KITTY in Japan to collaborate and invest in the Bad Kitty brand with this billion dollar company and now in progress for samples and merchandising to progress of working with the Sanrio company in Japan, along with the well known philanthropist entrepreneur, Mr Albert Bertini, to launch BAD KITTY clothing worldwide. As you may of seen him on channel 9s television show " The secret millionaire" but here is a short brief introduction about this amazing man!
  • Albert Bertini along side with his best friend Tommy Lee . world famous rockstar and band member of Motley Crew, ex husband of Pamela Anderson are the owners of the new rockstar celebrity fashion brand, JESVIL.

A.B. Formally known as Albert Bertini is known for his philanthropic contributions, along with an artistic and eccentric outlook towards life. He is a multi-talented entrepreneur and an international property developer who was televised on the Secret Millionaire, Australia. Renowned for his flair and imagination in the restoration of industrial heritage buildings, A.B is both the funder and creator of the original genius behind the internationally famous Grounds of Alexandria and a long list of commercial properties. With an artistic, eccentric approach, A.B is the long-term friend of various global celebrities in the art, music, sport and movie industries, and it is their vacations at his private resort that gave rise to the vision of a philanthropic marketplace.
