Christian Dior & OTB Analyst | FIT-Trained Fashion Business Mentor
I'm a fashion industry professional with a background that bridges creative and analytical work — I earned my Bachelor's in Fashion Business Management from Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT) and my MS in Business Analytics from Fordham's Gabelli School, then built my career inside the luxury industry—from CRM and digital marketing at GQ and Brooks Brothers, to inventory analytics at Christian Dior Couture, to my current role as an Inventory & CapEx Analyst at OTB Group (the house behind Diesel, Maison Margiela, Marni, and Jil Sander). I've seen how fashion actually runs as a business: how brands manage merchandise, forecast trends, allocate capital, and turn consumer data into decisions. That's exactly what I help applicants convey. Fashion programs no longer admit on creative talent alone—they want candidates who understand the commercial engine behind the brand. I help you articulate genuine industry insight, back your vision with data and consumer behavior, and position yourself as someone who sees fashion as both an art and a business. Having studied at FIT myself, I know what these programs look for from the inside, and having worked across fashion sectors, I bring a global perspective that today's industry demands. My goal is to help you stand out as a strategic, commercially-minded creative that any program would be excited to admit :)
