Emily Verdi is a Visual Experience Consultant at CX-STORY.. Colleagues describe them as "Emily spent 10 days in China with us in March 2011, traveled to 4 major cities to conduct in-depth interviews with fashion executives and multi-factory tours. Our study abroad program was designed to explore all facets of the fashion ecosystems; more importantly, for students to develop global competency, and cultural sensibility. Emily stood out as she could learn on the fly. From my perspective, she is one relentless and versatile learner, always open to change, and would go to the end in analyzing successes and miscues for opportunities to improvement. Tenacity is certainly one of her strengths. She had held various leadership positions of increasing responsibilities throughput her college career, always with a customer-centric mindset. She is a total team player – she knows when to lead (create initiatives), and how to follow (getting things done). Emily understands the interdependency between leadership and innovation. Connecting the dots. I see a great professional future in her.", "Emily is a very bright young lady. She has demonstrated strong writing skills and an initiative to learn. We wish her well with her career and recommend her without reservation.", and "Emily was a ideal internship candidate because of her professionalism and her willingness to learn. She was hard-working, always following each task through to completion and performed them with a smile on her face! She always maintained a personable, friendly demeanor which helped her to accomplish her daily goals and receive constructive criticism with grace and earnestness."
