Summary

During my academic career, I was a four-year scholarship volleyball player. I have also engaged in several cooperative assignments and worked professionally within the graphic and fashion design field, both of which have provided me with more than four years of experience before graduation. Throughout my young life, I have learned that hard work, creativity, a dedication to research and willingness to learn from my mentors can help me make a lasting impact on the fashion and graphic design industry.
