I have been studying art and design since I was seven years old. After leaving a small private university to start my own clothing line, I returned to school several years later to pursue a degree in merchandising and design. Visual merchandising is a systematic way for me to implement my creative insights and extensive production skill set in the industry. It is my platform for impacting others. It allows me to tell a story, communicate a message, and evoke a feeling through design, composition, and color. With the vast amount of knowledge and experience I have gained from my studies, I am confident and fully prepared to start my ambitious career in the industry.
