Make it/ own it/ live it
My journey in the fashion industry began with an internship at Abercrombie & Fitch head office, in Columbus Ohio. Other than training as a Fit Tech, ANF taught me the power of brand identity within a fashion business. When you can influence the masses to look, dress and feel the way you want them to, you’ve won the concept of consumerism.
