Fashion Marketing and Management
What brought you to Fanshawe?
Very few colleges offered this program and I wanted to get out of my home town and experience life in a new city.
Tell us about your favourite Fanshawe experience.
Meeting and getting to know my classmates. It was amazing to be able to bond over a common goal and interest. They made the work so much fun.
What impact has Fanshawe had on your life?
Helped to set me up to get after a career. The program showed many different aspects of the industry which helped to me to carve out my path. Where I thought I would end up in more of a design role at the beginning of the program I ended up pursuing a sales driven role
What are you up to now?
I'm currently a Key Account Manager for adidas Canada and am responsible for the SportChek account. Previous to that I was Category Manager/Buyer for SportChek for 9 years. I am passionate about keeping girls and women in sport and activity and am ecstatic I can play a role in that.
