Our goal is to have a fashion business focused student work with us on the final touches on a product launch we are planning for May of this year.

Deliverables
  • clear design process: through testing and consulting with our leadership team, as well as sampling
  • project management: work with our CEO to plan and execute the project to completion
Mentorship

Students will work closely with the primary project manager, Rachel Derkach, who is supervising and available for questions. This will also include 5 hours of focused mentoring on their area of choice.
