ABOUT GLORY LEE

Hello! My name is Glory (SeungHee) Lee and I\'m a current 5th year in the Brown|RISD Dual Degree Program, studying Economics at Brown University and Apparel Design at Rhode Island School of Design. This program draws on the complementary strengths of the two institutions and has provided me a space to synthesize my academic and artistic interests. Enriched by this interdisciplinary education, I have honed my ability to think critically and act decisively based on both strong economic intuition and thorough understanding of design principles. In Summer 2020, I was selected as a GUCCI Changemakers Scholar of the inaugural cohort. From the program, I learned practical knowledge about the complex structure and operational systems of top-tier companies like GUCCI. This invaluable experience confirmed my passion in business strategy and marketing of the fashion industry. Ever since, I\'ve pursued various professional internships to expand my skill set in the subject. In Summer 2021, I worked as the Business Transformation Intern at TAPESTRY INC.–a global house of iconic New York brands: COACH, KATE SPADE, and STUART WEITZMAN. In the following Fall 2022, I rejoined Tapestry and for the past 1.5 years, I\'ve been actively supporting projects across Global Digital Experience & Marketing at Coach. Previously, I also worked as the Global Marketing Intern at the Altair Eyewear portfolio of VSP Global and the Strategy Intern at Senreve, a luxury handbag brand. Outside of Brown|RISD and Tapestry, I\'ve started her independent project Missing Button–a creative partnership with the university stores to upcycle unsold overstock into unique merchandise for sale. The project has successfully completed multiple rounds of partnerships with the Brown Bookstore and RISD:Store. I\'m also active in Brown University’s Official & Student Theater as a Costume Designer and have designed for seven different shows. I plan to continue expressing my creativity and apply problem-solving skills in diverse platforms on and off campus.
