Meet Your Technical Designer
Erika Louie
Some people inherit fashion. Erika Louie Shoer earned it—working her way from a design room intern to managing tech design teams.
Her path has taken her through LA denim wash houses, Manhattan high-rises, and Paris runways, spanning every category from sweaters to woven goods. She brings deep expertise across the full product development lifecycle.
Erika is on a mission to demystify technical design—the invisible engine that powers the fashion industry. She built Tech Pack Tools to fill a gap the industry has ignored for too long: there is no dedicated resource for technical design education. What exists is scattered, gatekept, or non-existent.
Today, Tech Pack Tools is the internet's only comprehensive resource library for technical designers, giving emerging talent the foundation that schools don't teach and senior professionals never had access to.

I met Erika Louie and quickly discovered her talents for Technical Design. Tech designers can be unsung heroes, or they can be your downfall. I watched season after season of Erika creating perfect technical packs filled with every bit of necessary information needed for our factories to create our amazing products. I’ve followed Erika’s career as she has climbed the ladder of success to some of the most influential brands in the world. Her success is not by luck, but by her strong work ethic and her understanding of every detail for the products she touches. There is nothing she can’t do in the technical design world.
