Hey there!

My name is Yasselly Zaitseva

I am a Technical Designer for Apparel and Accessories in New York.

My Career so far

My professional career path may not have begun in Technical Design, but each experience has played a role in bringing me here today. From curating experiences as a Sales Coordinator to understanding customer needs as a Merchandise Ops Specialist, I've honed my skills in building relationships and understanding what makes people tick. These valuable lessons now fuel my creativity as a Technical Designer, where I translate designs into clear and informational tech packs.
