I knew enrolling at LIM was the right decision because it specializes in the business of fashion and also has a strong reputation for producing successful professionals in the industry. What makes LIM different is that it offers a boutique experience, where you get the best, from the best, to be the best in the fashion industry. It's a place designed to help you thrive in the business of fashion.

As a full-time working professional, I was so grateful that LIM's MPS degree had courses that worked with my traditional 9-to-5 schedule. I wouldn't be in my position at one of the world's most prestigious newspapers, without the advocacy from LIM…and if it weren't for all the resources LIM offered me.

I'd like to reach the executive level, and LIM has helped make that goal a realistic one. Part of the reason I was offered a position with New York & Co. is because I was able to have meaningful conversations about everything from visual merchandising strategies and product development life cycles to sustainability and differences in generational cohorts—that was a direct result of what I learned at LIM.

Classes at LIM were incredibly focused on real-world application. It prepared me for the work I do today, where clients expect a high level of marketing acumen to back up design decisions.
