“A standout experience in the program was completing a summer internship, where I had the incredible opportunity to work as a Merchandising Intern at Tapestry, Inc., specifically with Stuart Weitzman. This internship allowed me to apply the knowledge I gained in the classroom to a real-world setting, where I made a meaningful impact. Thanks to the skills I developed at TCU, I excelled in my role and was offered a temporary position during my senior year, with the exciting opportunity to continue post-graduation.”
