What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to grow in writing and retail management, where I can leverage my skills in communication and customer service.

I am an undergraduate student pursuing a degree in English Literature with a minor in Journalism. My passion for writing and storytelling drives my academic and professional endeavors. Currently, I contribute as a writer for The Odyssey, where I explore various topics that resonate with my audience.

In my professional experience, I have held various roles in retail, including Supervisor and Visual Merchandiser at American Vintage. Here, I played a pivotal role in launching a flagship store, managing inventory, and enhancing customer experiences through effective communication and visual merchandising. My ability to connect with customers and create engaging social media content has helped attract new clientele and foster brand loyalty.
