CREATIVE CONSULTANT/FASHION STYLIST/MODEL/SALES DIRECTOR

My work at Robert Verdi INC. included a multitude of experiences and tasks that I carried out and efficiently executed.

I held a variety of positions and completed many different tasks in order to further positively impact the growth and development of the company. The use of Social Media in Fashion has become increasingly prevalent and almost synonymous with the attitudes and ideas of Fashion in the current state of the industry. In a company in which the industry is always changing, fresh ideas and youthful energy are exactly what can bring a new generation of customers and clientele to a company. I brought in a new perspective into the company and offered my creative consulting in a multitude of ways/forms, from choosing the right type of silk twill for bespoke scarves to making sure the lighting of the display matched the theme of the room after the interior designer had left the picture. Communicating to the CEO and essentially being his right hand man were both also a part of my work here.

Also I had made lasting impressions with all the clients and continued to communicate with them after the transaction had been finished and after the pop up shop had been over, also at odd hours of the night.

This job was very similar to for example, working at a startup in its early phases due to the small team and the fact that I did basically every job that was required in order to further the Company's growth, instead of a large corporation where employees rarely tend to care about the company and just do the bare minimum to get by.

I believe working at a startup will also allow me to shine and show my true worth as I am a very creative individual, and while I can do what i am told, I really do best when i am given room to put my own spin on things, being i am a person who will really push through to make sure the company is doing well.
