When I graduated high school, I would have never guessed the path my education and career would take. Little me would be so proud! From volunteering at a New York Fashion Week show to interning for a luxury brand, I would have never thought I&#8217;d get to experience these things.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s funny how after working fashion shows and being in the luxury environment, I&#8217;ve definitely felt more pulled toward a more &#8220;apparel&#8221; and less &#8220;fashion&#8221; focus. It&#8217;s something I didn&#8217;t know when I was in high school, and is a good reminder to keep an open mind. When I started at FIT I thought I would become a buyer one day, but I&#8217;ve really enjoyed the path I am on to be on the producing side of things.<\/p>\n<p>I have enjoyed the last three and a half years, and am definitely ready to wrap up my last half, as bittersweet as it may be!<\/p>\n<p>Sam<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hi everyone!
