Welcome! As a Senior Fashion Merchandising student at Virginia Commonwealth University, I am very passionate about entering the fashion industry. I’ve been fortunate enough to acquire a wealth of knowledge extending beyond the classroom. Last year, I studied abroad in Italy where I was able to learn more about sourcing, product development, and global relations within the fashion industry. I am eager to apply my knowledge and experiences to the workforce in a collaborative environment where I thrive the most. In my portfolio, you will find projects from Fashion Forecasting, Retail Buying Simulation, Importing & Exporting Fashion, Contemporary Fashion, and Entrepreneurship.

This past February, I was able to intern during NYFW, allowing hands on experience in the buying realm of how appointments with luxury designers and department stores run as well as learning the ins and outs of market week. As I align towards the analytical side of the fashion industry, I am open to learning, evolving, and mastering my skill set in the buying sector of the industry.
