In My Own Words

I am currently looking for a job in the adventure/activewear industry. I love everything outdoors, particularly snowboarding, hiking, camping, swimming, and running.

I completed my Merchandise Marketing degree at the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising, where I was also a member of the Premier Marketing Group. I have a Bachelor's Degree from the University of Colorado at Boulder in English-Creative Writing. Because these two degrees were so different, they have allowed me to approach problems at work in a creative way.

I have multiple years of retail experience and customer service skills. I have also helped develop social media campaigns and written news letters for various clients at jobs I've held. I enjoy to work hard at everything I do. I'm a team player, a self starter, and a fast learner.
