I'm currently taking a gap year from college, studying business with a minor in politics. During this time, I'm also working on a side project to develop a mobile app. This involves overseeing strategy and planning, as well as UX/UI design and other related tasks. Depending on the situation, I may also take care of financial aspects such as financial runway or investor relations. At this point, we haven't yet determined the type of app we'll be creating.
With a background in art and experience living abroad, I was exposed to the world through fine art, which sparked my interest in fashion. I learned how to sew using a machine at the young age of 7 and began exploring the idea of starting my own clothing line at 15. However, after a year, my interest shifted towards eco-friendly practices and up-cycling. This ultimately led me to create and run my own brand of up-cycled products.
After finishing high school, I attended FIT, a fashion school in NYC where I intended to major in International Trade and Marketing for the Fashion Industries. However, I later realized that art was not my forte, so I withdrew and applied to Cornell University as an Economics major. Prior to beginning my studies, I decided to take a leave of absence to pursue internships in business, which helped shape my career aspirations.
