CV Oliver Heß

Never stop learning – Oliver Heß absolvierte Ende der 1990er-Jahre sein Studium der Textiltechnick (Dipl. Ing. FH) mit dem Schwerpunkt Textilgestaltung an der Hochschule Niederrhein in Mönchengladbach. Er arbeitete zunächst als Textildesigner für einen deutschen Bettwäscheanbieter in Süddeutschland, um dann zu einem internationalen Modekonzern im Raum Düsseldorf zu wechseln, bei dem er 18 Jahre in verschiedenen Positionen tätig war. Sein Antrieb ist stets der Anspruch an bestmögliche Qualität, denn 'no detail is small'. Nach 20 Jahren kehrte er 2017 an seine Hochschule zurück. Dort ist er als Wissenschaftlicher Mitarbeiter am Forschungsinstitut für Textil und Bekleidung (FTB) tätig. In diesem Zusammenhang begann er sein Masterstudium Textile Produkte mit dem Schwerpunkt Design.
