I am a Spring 2024 Graduate from the University of South Carolina Department of Retail. I concentrated in Fashion Merchandising and Digital Innovations.
Throughout my youth I lived in Marietta, GA, Austin, TX, and Charlotte, NC. Then I went to college in Columbia, SC. All of the moving I experienced when I was younger has led me to be independent and adaptive. My creative problem solving skills is one of my proudest traits, especially being in such a fast paced industry.
I am especially lucky to have had so much global exposure throughout my youth. My mother is a Brazilian immigrant who taught me how to speak Portuguese at home. Every day, I am increasingly inspired by both of my parents and their work ethic. They have taught me how to navigate challenging times in all aspects of life, and led by example with their resilience. I strive to continue their legacy of perseverance as I grow into my own person in the Fashion and Retail Industry.
