Your Teachers

Daniel Beaudet:
Daniel graduated from Cégep Marie-Victorin in Fashion Design before continuing his studies at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Anvers. Besides being an outstanding designer, Daniel is an experienced teacher who has many years of experience.

He is actually the one who set up the sewing and fabric section at Effiloché while teaching students how to sew and draft patterns for just over 3 years. He also taught at Emeline & Annabelle for over a year. After, he dedicated himself to the fashion industry and worked as an assistant designer and production manager at Annie 50 and Mélissa Nepton. Following these experiences, he decided to start his own company under the brand Leinad! Today, he gives us a bit of his time and expertise ... simply because he likes to teach.
