My four years at SKEMA gave me the opportunity to learn both in and outside the classroom. The student clubs were an important part of my experience, especially Ateliê, the fashion club in Brazil, where I had the chance to work directly with major Brazilian brands and gain practical experience. I also spent one year studying at EADA in Barcelona, where I met people from different countries and built friendships with students from Europe and the North America. The courses, combined with professors from different nationalities and professional backgrounds, brought different perspectives to my learning and prepared me for an international career.
