I am a 2024 graduate of Iowa State University, where I received a Bachelor of Science in Apparel Merchandising with minors in General Business and Fashion History, Culture, & Social Justice. Through my ISU classes and work experiences at Guess?, Inc., Innovate 1858, etc., I have obtained a comprehensive understanding of the processes and skills related to buying/merchandising. I am an eager and fast learner with a lot of passion for the work I do.Upon the end of my seasonal position as Lead Retail Associate at West Glacier Gifts by Pursuit Collection in September 2024, I plan to relocate to New York City and pursue a career in the fashion industry. I am excited to put my skills to use!
