About Me:
I first discovered a passion for visual merchandising early on in my college career. Since then I have worked hard to develop my talents while learning the intricacies of the business with two different stores. Most recently at Boca Raton Bridal, I was constantly challenged to create displays that put a fresh spin on established fashions while staying true to the traditions of a recognized location. While there, I discovered the gratification of working off of displays that I designed to assist brides in realizing their dreams, which made even the most tedious or time consuming demands of the job worthwhile. Earlier in my career, at Hollister, I first learned how to properly pay attention to detail in order to create the perfect visual display. At the Art Institute, during my course in fashion styling for photography, I worked with numerous styles and settings according to different motifs and produced an eye-catching portfolio. I am fully motivated to take the foundation of skills in visual merchandising and sales that I have already gained and apply them to my carrer. Ideally, I would love to combine my interest in visual merchandising with the other aspects of the position so I can become proficient in all facets of this exciting and challenging field.
