First, I have to start off by stating
how much I like the title of this assignment. “VOICE.” I truly
believe that everyone, no matter your profession, socioeconomic
status, gender or sexual orientation, you have a voice. We don't use
our voices to create positive changes anymore, and that is sometimes
a tough realization. But I am here because I still want to try to be
heard, making an impact and creating a better standard of living for
myself through the avenue of the Fashion Business. Now, I am no
designer. But what I may lack in raw creativity, I make up for in
drive and ambition in the business world. I have a keen business
mentality. That is where I feel like I can truly shine.
It almost
runs in my blood, considering many other family members on my
father's side, including my father himself, own their own businesses.
It gives me a great sense of pride to know that as a business and
fashion professional, I can carry on that legacy, and hopefully
inspire my future children and my cousins children as well. I realize
that the goals I have set for myself seem quite lofty, but you can't
make it in the cutthroat business of fashion by setting the bar too
low. At the age of 31, after all my experiences thus far and for the
first time in my life, I truly and genuinely believe in my
capabilities and potential.
