Tina Gattermann
Tina hails from Hamburg, Germany. At the age of 14, Tina discovered her first super power - pattern making, when she had her first encounter with a sewing machine. From that time forward, wherever she went, whatever else was on the calendar, a sewing machine was always in tow. Upon high school graduation in 1990, Tina went on to attend Jak Akademie für Modedesign, a fashion design school. While working her way through school, she was employed by a fabric house as an administrator, where she learned the business of textiles; and, within the world of high fashion, became a hair and make-up artist for fashion shows and photographers.
