Travis Stedman stedmantc@gmail.com Mon, Oct 9, 8:59 PM  To me,

 Good day, This letter is to confirm that I, Travis Stedman, had the pleasure of employing Jasmiena as our Head Product Designer and Manufacturing Manager at Tayla Sportswear from 2012 to 2015. She is a talented designer with an exceptional eye for detail and played a pivotal role in redesigning our entire product line, which includes sportswear for children and adults of all shapes, sizes, and styles. Her work ethic was impeccable. Regrettably, due to financial constraints, both Jasmiena and I were retrenched from the company in 2015. Nonetheless, as a testament to her outstanding work, I have repeatedly enlisted her services for various clothing-related projects since then. Currently, I am in discussions with her to design apparel for my new brand, which demands well-fitted and expertly designed clothing. I wholeheartedly recommend Jasmiena for any clothing design project or similar role. She is a delightful person, making her a joy to collaborate with. Kind regards, Travis Stedman
