What are you currently studying?
Bachelor of Creative Arts (Visual Arts & Design)
-----
Favourite downtime activity after a long lecture?
Honestly – Netflix and a nap. #relatable
-----
What is it about the fashion industry that you’re so passionate about?
It really is so diverse with different career paths and roles, and it’s so creative.
-----
The fashion industry is such a broad career avenue. Any particular area you want to explore?
Because I have a background in Visual Arts, I think I like the fashion or textile design part of the industry, but I think it would be amazing to participate in the making of a haute couture collection.
-----
Who inspires you?
I love artists like Frida Kahlo, Tracey Emin and Jenny Saville, I think they’ve all inspired me at some point, but I’m also inspired by Alexa Chung and Caroline de Maigret.
-----
What’s the quote you live by?
“Some people die at age 25 but aren’t buried until they are 75.” - Benjamin Franklin
-----
Where do you want to see yourself in five years?
Maybe I would like to live in London in five years time, but most importantly I would like to be working for an eco-conscious brand, still creating art and be living happily.
-----
How do you think your comp entry differed to other applicants?
Most likely I think that my response showed just how passionate I am about art, design, textiles and fashion – especially sustainable and ethical fashion practices.
-----
Any advice to first year students starting university?
Stay open minded about the direction that your degree can take you in – I never thought I would be interested in fashion & textiles when I first started my degree.
-----
Go-to outfit for uni:
Usually something comfortable, like a long sleeve shirt under an oversized t-shirt and a denim skirt or jeans.
