Originally from Miami, FL, Samantha knew she wanted to earn her bachelor's and master's in fashion. She chose LIM as the next step in her education specifically for the school's fashion focused programs, which were hard to find closer to home.
She's now a senior majoring in Fashion Merchandising and living in the College's FOUND Study - Midtown East residence hall. Here, Samantha speaks about the support she received during the process of transferring to LIM, in addition to what it's like to study fashion in New York and to live only a short walk away from campus.
