In my own words

— shia

Highly organized, adaptive, detail-oriented, creative, think-outside-the-box individual with Associate of Arts Degree in Product Development and solid knowledge and experience in Customer Service (3+ years), Apparel Styling, Visual and Merchandise Presentation, Flat Sketching, Trend Research & Analysis, and Project Management.

Seeking career opportunity in the merchandising, coordinating, and/or styling direction. I am goal oriented and dedicated to achieving success in everything that I do. I have recently returned from an extended travel adventure, where I visited 13 different cities in 9 different countries. Travelling solo has been a very enriching experience which has taught me some important life lessons. I have returned armed with courage, determination, adaptability, confidence, patience and flexibility, and am now refreshed and ready to tackle getting my career positively on track. With solid communication and inter-personal skills, I am now actively seeking a new ground-floor opportunity in the merchandising, coordinating, and/or styling direction, where I can utilize my talents and experience gained to date. My goal is to build upon the foundation already in place, add value and further grow my career in a successful company willing to invest by offering additional training and career growth prospects. Other: Selected as one of 45 participants to participate in JWRP’s inaugural international fashion trip to Israel this summer. Week-long trip includes meeting with some of Israel's top fashion designers, merchandisers, and marketers.
