- Why I chose my major and emphasis
I always loved fashion from afar but when I came to UGA and discovered the program, I thought it was the perfect combination of my love for the subject and a way to express myself through my studies. I thought PDD offered the most classes where I could not only gain technical skills that would help me once I entered the industry, but also mentorship and friendship I will take with me after my time in college.
- What I like most about TMI or PDD
PDD has taught me more than I could have imagined when I chose it as my emphasis. It is such a close knit group of students and teachers who not only offer support and their knowledge of the subjects, but also offers a welcoming environment I am so grateful to be a part of whenever I walk into the classroom.
- Post-graduation plans
I am planning to move to New York after graduation to pursue a career in design.
