Hi:) Thank you so much for visiting.
My name is Jessie Kwon studying Fashion Design and Marketing at WashU. As a student studying both within the Sam Fox School of Design and Visual Arts and the Olin Business School, I have the necessary communication skills and industry knowledge to incorporate into the fashion world.
Throughout my undergraduate studies, I have developed to become a leader and a listener. Being part of multiple clubs on campus, I have grown from being a team member to taking on leadership roles. My love for fashion design, marketing, and business development in the fashion industry has been prevalent through my stylist roles in fashion magazines, as apparel manager for my sorority, and as a marketing exec.
