Who I am

I am someone who leads with curiosity, creativity, and gratitude. I find joy in both the big moments and the quiet everyday ones, whether that’s exploring new places or spending time with the people I love. I’m naturally outgoing and adventurous, energized by connection and inspired by the world around me. Traveling has deepened my desire to experience life fully and see different cultures through my own lens. Grounded, optimistic, and always eager to learn, I’m excited for the path ahead and the person I continue to grow into.

Kappa Kappa Gamma

I am a proud member of the Kappa Kappa Gamma, Gamma Eta chapter, at Washington State University. Being surrounded by driven, compassionate, and inspiring women has continually challenged me to grow as a student, a leader, and an individual. Through the opportunity to hold a director position and serve on the executive team, I strengthened my leadership abilities, collaboration skills, and sense of responsibility while working alongside peers who share a commitment to growth and community. I will forever be grateful for the transformative opportunities Kappa has given me and for the lifelong friendships built through this sisterhood that will extend far beyond my college experience.

Study Abroad

One of the greatest privileges of my journey has been studying abroad in Florence, Italy. Immersed in the heart of European fashion and culture, I had the opportunity to deepen my understanding of design while traveling throughout Europe and experiencing a wide range of traditions, perspectives, and creative influences. Living and learning abroad encouraged significant personal growth, pushing me to become more independent, adaptable, and confident in unfamiliar environments. Navigating new cultures, languages, and ways of life strengthened my problem-solving skills and broadened my worldview, ultimately shaping how I approach fashion, as both a form of cultural expression and a truly global industry.

Industry Experience

As a fashion design and apparel merchandising student, I bring a strong eagerness to learn alongside hands-on industry experience in both creative and retail environments. My background spans designing and constructing final garments, participating in runway and retail projects, and working as a sales associate in a high-volume retail setting where I applied merchandising strategy, trend knowledge, and sales metrics to drive results. I am passionate about bridging design creativity with consumer-focused solutions and real-world business impact.
