PERSONAL PROFILE

fervour for fashion forecasting, styling, photography and PR. I am a BA Fashion Marketing graduate
from The University of Northampton, the course has presented me with the tools and skills required
to survive in such an industry. I am looking for a permanent job within this industry, one that will
allow me to grow and develop. I am young and dynamic and offer a fresh minded perspective and an
excellent work ethic.

INTERESTS AND SKILLS

Fashion is one of my biggest interests. From taking modules such as ‘Fashion Styling and the
Photograph’, ‘21st Century Fashion’ and ‘Fashion Professional Practice’ I have been able to develop
creatively and expand on my knowledge of fashion. It is also the buying, merchandising and
marketing side of my degree, along with my strong passion for magazine, trend forecasting, sourcing
new ideas and having a strong commercial awareness that has made me realise that this industry is
the right choice for me and has proven that I am not only a marketer but also a creator.
