Centralized and related academics to fashion since high school. Committed to Visual Merchandising as a Senior Project topic and enjoyed the challenges and also obtained knowledge of the industry.
Continued higher education at Cal Poly Pomona majoring in Apparel Merchandising and Management in retail. Worked for employers like Nordstrom to grasp more of the business and developed an even higher passion for the industry.
Previous work started in a boutique in Arcadia named Tiger Lily where I was responsible for independent selling, which included managing the floor while getting customers to come in. I primarily utilized social media and let people know about certain products and also posted, styled, and modeled for pictures of new merchandise. I also styled mannequins to continue to keep a fresh look to the store.
Most recent retail experience was for Nordstrom where I sold for the Brass Plum department, which is called Trend now. Brass Plum carried items from exclusive merchandise to even well-known brands including Billabong, Volcom, Project Social, Paintred Threads, and so much more. Emphasized on providing customers' exceptional service experience, Utilized customer relationships to drive business so communicated effectively to customers to bring in to the store consistently and constantly.
