Hi, I’m Abi! I’m pursuing a BFA in Fashion Merchandising with a minor in Creative Writing at Belmont University. I serve as the Vice President of The Women’s Network Belmont, fostering networking opportunities and collaborative events for young professionals on campus. My professional background includes experience as a Digital Intern for Tractor Supply Co. and as a Retail Intern at Cheekwood Botanical Gardens, where I gained hands-on experience in site merchandising, visual merchandising, and marketing. In 2025, I was named a semi-finalist for the National Retail Federation’s Next Generation Scholarship. Passionate about sustainability, I am driven to support initiatives focused on ethical sourcing, waste reduction, and fair labor practices. Ultimately, I aspire to leave the retail industry better than I found it, leading with authenticity, creativity, and purpose.
