I've had an eye for fashion and personal style ever since I
was a young boy, I couldn’t help but notice other people’s great style.
It wasn’t until the end of high school I realized my belonging in fashion
and the benefits of perfecting my natural skills. After contemplating
the type of career I wanted, it officially dawned on me when I saw the Art
Institute’s commercial featuring the Fashion Marketing & Management
program. At that moment I chose what would be my life career.
My education has been an experience exceeding my wildest expectations.
Starting directly out of high school gave me motivation and eagerness to
broaden my skills. I joined a number of clubs on campus, one being an
honors society called Alpha Beta Gamma, chapter Delta Phi. Where myself
and three other students participated on the executive board
brainstorming events for both on campus and within the community.
Also, being a part of the fashion club kept me connected with everything
related to fashion on and off campus.
While attending school, I gained experience in the industry at OBEY
Clothing headquarters as a Visual Marketing intern. I applied my
knowledge in the fields of styling, merchandising, and customer
analysis. It was a fulfilling and gratifying experience that assured my
existence in fashion.
This journey has been life-changing and I am excited for the future ahead.
