Fashion Marketer & Manager
ABOUT ME
Hey guys!!
My name is Carmen Maria and I am from Quito, Ecuador.
Since I was a little girl, I loved to steal my mother’s and her friend’s shoes and clothes. Fashion has always been my obsession. I decided to follow my dreams and study Fashion Marketing and Management at Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD) with a minor in Service Design.
I believe that fashion is a way of communicating with people and I enjoy helping them express what they feel with their clothes by providing them excellent service.
I describe myself as a creative, charismatic and perseverant person with the objective to produce exceptional work, and learn new things each day.
