“Aaliyah, our fantastic intern, has been an invaluable asset to the team. Her talent, enthusiasm, and proactive nature stood out as she contributed to visual merchandising, marketing projects, and supported the product design team. From the start, she showcased exceptional design skills and a strong passion for the industry. We will miss her and are excited to see what her bright future holds!”
