I am a Fashion Merchandising student with a business mind and creative soul. My work in the fashion and retail industry has strengthened my skills in visual merchandising, customer service, styling, and trend prediction. I do my best when presented with a challenge and I am an innovative problem solver. I have an eye for design and am always observing my surroundings for new inspiration. I am a leader and people person by nature, allowing me to excel in diverse team settings.

While completing my college career, my goal is to experience and learn about as many facets of the fashion industry as possible. My past work has allowed me to partake in numerous activities such as styling, merchandising, buying, blogging, and working promotional events. From this, I have developed a passion for creating visual displays. I intend to strengthen this skill through my Social Media/ PR internship with For Love and Lemons this summer in Los Angeles. I will also be interning with the showroom Agent Icon in LA. I believe it is necessary for me to have knowledge of both wholesale and retail in order to have a better understanding of fashion companies as well as the final consumer.

My fashion philosophy is simple and stems from my love of travel. I believe in packing light and basic pieces that will carry you from day to night. Money can buy you fashion but it doesn't make you fashionable. I am an advocate for quality over quantity and paring H&M shoes with a Chanel bag.

Cooking is another creative outlet for me. I'm an avocado addict who coordinates most meals to get the perfect look for my Snapchat story. My favorite thing to have on my plate is the fish I caught and the spinach grown in my garden. I'm a kid at heart, but I've been told I'm an old soul.
