Howdy!

Born and raised in Richmond, VA, I am a recent Virginia Commonwealth University graduate. I graduated Magna Cum Laude with a Bachelor of Science in Public Relations and Fashion Merchandising. This combination of studies, while uncommon, has helped me build my perspective on communications, creativity, and cultural forecasting. I would love to experiment with how my fashion merchandising minor can play a professional communications role. I am fortunate enough to have created a course path in this minor to focus on trend forecasting, branding, content curation, and market analysis. These two focus paths may seem unconventional on the surface, but I believe there is value in blending the two.

I grew up as a classical ballet dancer, which built a foundation of determination, balance, respect, and creativity. I found my love of community outreach, branding, and advertising while working on promotional events in the marketing and development departments during my time injured as a professional dancer.
