A Letter From the Pres

Hi everyone! 

My name is Brittany and I am the President of Fashion Board at USC.  I am currently studying fashion merchandising and will be a junior, come fall.  This summer I am interning with fashion designer Hunter Bell of Hunter Dixon.  Many of you may recognize her as the recent winner of this seasons' Fashion Star!

I have now been in New York City for two weeks and can successfully say I have survived the first three days of my internship.  Working for Hunter Dixon has been an amazing experience thus far.  Even though I have only been interning a few short days, I am starting to learn my way around.

The first day I arrived at the office I was immediately put to work.  Luckily for me running around the city wasn't too much of an issue because the office is located right in the center of the garment district!  The only downside has been running back and forth to the same places multiple times during the same hour.  With all the running around this internship provides I may be in the greatest shape of my life once the summer ends.  Look out Columbia!

Besides running around, my day mainly consists of assisting Hunter herself and the design assistant Britta.  I help them in the office or running errands for the production team.  If there is anything to take away from this half of a week, it is to ALWAYS have comfortable shoes and to be sure you always have your charger.  I do not know what I would do without the HotSpot app and Google maps on my phone!

I look forward to the rest of the summer and I will be sure to keep everyone posted.  I cannot wait to hear about everyone's summer adventures!


XOXO,

Brittany
