I am a woman breed by fashion. Fashion has not only empowered me to be the strong woman I am today but it is the only matter that drives me to excel. Fashion does not just exist, it lives. How you dress can interpret how a person feels, how their day went, or what lifestyle they live. I've always wanted to help women enhance their natural beauty. I suffered from low self esteem myself, but embracing who I was and my style bought confidence and drive to my life. This has been my passion since I was five years old and even in the present day fashion is my biggest muse in life. Though I have had my obstacles staying true to my style, dedication to be successful, and my learning from my mistakes has gotten me to this opportunity today. I have great potential within me and The Fashion Institute of Technology is the perfect place for me to broaden my knowledge and apply my skills to grow within the fashion industry. I want to strive to be the best with the best.
My ambition has always been radiated by fashion. I remember as young as the age of four, fashion has been a significant facet of my life. Growing up I was quite the introvert, but fashion bought life to me. I would play dress-up with my grandparent’s clothes and costumes and do a catwalk. I started drawing clothing at the age of five. My aunt and I would sit at the dining room table and create what we liked to call "princesses". I even remember giving my drawings names of the states and their capitols just to help me in geography. Once my family picked up on my love for fashion, I got a sewing machine for Christmas. It was in 2004 and I'll never forget this Christmas year. I quickly began to learn to sew and made clothes for my Barbie dolls. I would make little...

I want to support the hard work of great designers that are not as mainstream and renowned but deserve the credit for great craftsmanship and talent. I want to do what I love and I know FIT will not only give me the extensive education I need to progress, but it will also put me inside of a community that is diverse in cultures and talents that will give me the competitiveness, atmosphere and challenge I need to successfully apply myself. I am a great candidate for FIT because I have no space for error. I have my eye set on a goal and I plan on achieving it with at high statures. I would love to wear the name of FIT and let the world know that FIT helped cultivate my career.
