I'm Odette, a Freelance Creative Designer
with over 30 years of Toy Industry experience.

I started my toy design career in NYC as an illustrator, packaging designer and art director at a small ad agency. I moved on to become a toy inventor for 7 years at Ned Strongin Creative Services where I created feature dolls for Zapf and games for Milton Bradley and Parker Brothers.

Upon being hired by Mattel, I relocated to Los Angeles where I worked for over 18 years. The first 7 years, I designed feature advertised dolls for Cabbage Patch Kids. I then moved to the Barbie design team where I designed playsets, feature dolls, Dreamhouses & Castles.

My last 9 years were spent at Hasbro designing playsets and Castles for the Disney Princess and Frozen Fashion Doll line. In the last 2 years there, I worked on playsets for My little Pony, Baby Alive  & Peppa Pig as well as blue sky/new concepts.
