Diane began her career in the fashion industry in 1979 as a makeup artist and later as a model. She has modelled in Tokyo, Milan, Paris and across Canada and worked directly with a wide range of well known designers and design houses such as Karl Lagerfeld, Chanel, Comme des Garcons and Yohji Yamamoto.

Diane returned to Vancouver in 1987 and quickly put her many years of modelling to work as a production assistant and stylist with some of the city's best known show producers and choreographers. She also worked as a studio manager for professional photographer Jane Weitzel and honed her retail skills while a sales associate at Holt Renfrew and Wear Else.

Over the years Diane has continued to model and to expand her repetoire in the industry: She has been a guest speaker at Kwantlen University College, taught courses at Helen Lefeaux Fashion Design School and most recently held the position of International Sales Director at Zonda Nellis Design.

When she is able to step away from fashion Diane enjoys spending time with her husband, and their dog Luna, gardening, practicing yoga, travelling and discovering new music.
