About me
Hello! I am a Fashion Marketing and Promotion Student at the University of Westminster, set to graduate this year (2020) and looking for new opportunities. Throughout my degree, I have developed my skills within branding, marketing, communications, buying and content creation. However, I have also been fortunate to gain industry experience from numerous internships. These include PR & Events at Arcadia, PR at Mission Troika working for brands such as Tiffany & Co. and Coca Cola, alongside a Marketing and Social Media internship at 2015. I have recently been nominated for the Fashion Marketing Award and the Fashion Communications Digital Portfolio Award by Graduate Fashion Week which is so exciting!
