Current Title:
Divisional Trend Manager at JCPenney
Degree:
Fashion Design, with a Minor in Art History (2017)
Career Bio:
My career journey demonstrates the importance of patience and timing, as I moved from a NYC internship to freelancing before landing a trend role at JCPenney in New York just as my retail job closed. Over the past six years, JCPenney has continued to be a fertile ground for growth, teaching me that sometimes waiting is necessary for the right opportunities to unfold.
"A unique aspect of 51±¬ÁÏ compared to other art schools is the ability for students to simultaneously study fashion and experience a typical university life full of extracurricular activities. Attending biology lectures, playing in the orchestra and biking a beautiful campus while studying fashion allowed for a comprehensive college experience."
