Accomplishments

What advice would you give?

The fashion industry is very competitive so you need to find something that will set you apart from others. While I was doing my internship, I also participated in other fashion PR events and shoots to gain even more knowledge, experience and most importantly, I've gained connections that will be a good start to my career. Just work hard and give it all you have.
