My Voice

Working in the fashion world has always been a dream of mine. Fashion allows people to express themselves to others; what a person wears helps them show not only a person’s creativity but also one’s personality.  All facets of the fashion industry excite me; however I am more focused on the business side, fashion merchandising and marketing, rather than fashion design. The business side of fashion allows many choices for a career.  One can become a fashion buyer, visual merchandiser, or a boutique owner.  All of these potential career choices excite me. I am a college student and relatively new to this field. I have not had much experience working in this field, although I worked at my aunt’s boutique and helped her dress the shop windows. I am a college student pursuing my BS degree in fashion retail management at Art Institute of Las Vegas.  After I graduate, I will travel so I can further understand fashion as it exists in different cultures.  This will provide me with a strong basis for understanding what consumers want in different cultures as well as what raw materials are available in different countries. Such travel will help me become a better buyer or visual merchandiser.
