After graduating from The University of East London, with a Fashion Design degree. I am aspiring to undertake and pursue my career. I am an out-going enthusiastic individual, that loves to innovate my ideas amongst others. I am a versatile creative with a hard work ethic and have four years’ experience; within retail, internships and freelancing.
Currently, I am a Dyson Stylist at Selfridges, London. I have excellent customer service experience within luxury brands. I am confident in speaking with customers and clients, demonstrating how the products work and why they would be best suitable for the individual. I am a motivated and driven person; I love to exceed my daily sales targets. I strive to enhance myself to further develop and expand within Dyson.
Prior to working at Dyson, Selfridges. I was the Lead Creative at Topshop in a flagship store, Stratford Westfield. Working in a quick paced environment, I managed my time effectively. Every morning I would ensure that I had written up an ‘action plan’ for the day and then ran this through with my team before the day commenced. Being the Lead Creative at Topshop, I coordinated and planned floor movements within trends. Product placement was key to help excel sales and profits within the stores turnover. I am extremely confident in working on my own or just as well within a team. I love to problem solve and undertake a methodical approach in coming up with solutions. I have developed a professional skill in visual installations, bringing displays to life. Running a team with complete ownership to implement brand values through styling; mannequins, windows and setting trends within the store. Furthermore, I maintained a high visual standard through team structure and planning. Communicating with in-store managers and keeping a close relationship with head office gave me the freedom to imprint my own visual ideas within the store, to keep Topshop looking vibrant and fresh. I was passionate and keen to create an on-going inspiration ‘Pinterest’ page, this was used for the whole store team to access as and when they wanted.
Whilst not at work, I love to create and explore within my own personal projects; whether that be updating my current website or collaborating with other talented individuals. Through collaborating with others, I have built a creative network. I have exceptional experience in producing fashion films, editorials, photoshoots and getting my work published in various successful magazines including ‘Vogue’. Through my passion for creative art, I managed to build a team together through my network and produce a fashion film for LONDON FASHION WEEK 2017 that was then showcased at ‘BBC Children in Need’.
I am an enthusiastic person, eager to learn more and adapt to new environments. I would love to work for your company. I am a responsible, self-motivated individual. I have a hard work ethic and a strong creative skillset.
