My first leadership position in a fashion-centered environment.
I was elected by the Fashion Society President, Kylie Knickerbocker, and Vice President, Samara Dyal, to take on the role of Modeling Chairman, alongside the three lovely people next to me, Lance Lozano, Jai Strong, and Nathan Arce (from left to right).
It has single-handedly been one of the greatest decisions in my life and especially college career to lead Fashion Society’s modeling committee from the Fall 2024 to the Spring 2025 semesters.
From mentoring first-time student models to casting the Zine models and Show models to walking the Show itself, this experience has given me a way to showcase my expertise in the modeling and fashion field, as well as given me a passion for mentoring people new to the industry.
I’m eternally grateful for everyone who helped me achieve this position and everyone who has learned from me and taught me during my time as Modeling Chairman.
