Projects
This page highlights projects from my time at University, showcasing my hands-on experience in fashion retailing, merchandising, and marketing. From leading field visits to industry conferences and managing events, to conducting research and lab work, each project demonstrates my ability to apply theoretical knowledge to real-world scenarios, showcasing leadership, strategic thinking, and problem-solving skills in the fashion industry.
01
Marketing Research Paper
This research paper reflects the findings of a marketing research project that was conducted by myself, as well as a team of fellow business students, for the admissions team at Johnson & Wales University. Over the course of sixteen weeks, my team and I planned and conducted focus groups, surveys, and field research to find which marketing tactics are the most effective in recruiting new students and keeping them engaged at JWU.
02
Fashion Details
In my junior year fashion lab, I created a booklet highlighting small yet significant garment details like stitching, fabric finishes, and trims, showing how they contribute to a design's quality, durability, and aesthetic. This project deepened my understanding of the craftsmanship behind fashion design and the importance of even the smallest elements.
03
Fashion Forecast
In my forecasting class at Johnson & Wales University, I worked on a team project where we predicted fashion trends for the spring/summer 2025 season. We analyzed current and past trends to make informed predictions about what styles, colors, and materials would dominate the upcoming seasons. This project allowed us to apply our forecasting knowledge, and it's a career path many of my classmates are excited to pursue after graduation.
04
The Progression of Dementia in the Brain
This project offered me a chance to look more closely at how life can be impacted by certain psychological conditions. Over the course of eight months, I visited a resident nicknamed "Hope" to conduct evaluations on her cognitive abilities.
The findings of this project were later published in The Westerly Sun Newspaper.
