About

Hello! I am a student at the University of Delaware, working towards a Bachelor of Science degree in Apparel Design with a minor in Organizational and Community Leadership.

I am a driven and enthusiastic person who enjoys meeting new people and exploring new grounds. I have a strong interest in fashion, whether it be design, photography, styling, or merchandising. Through internships and part-time job opportunities, I hope to find my niche within the fashion industry.
