About

I recently moved to Texas and I've been working in retail for over 3 years to get experience from different companies while I go to school for my degree in Fashion Merchandising. I work part time while taking 15 credit hours both semesters. I plan on taking summer classes and applying for internships before my senior year. I've joined two organziations at my school to get invovled and meet new people and experience new things when I have the opportunity. Being able to apply and recieve scholarships will help me a lot since I live on my own and pay for most of my bills. I'm excited to be a member of Honor Society in college, my high school experience was fun.
