About Lindsey Allen

Fashion is a dynamic, ever-changing, and all-encompassing industry that affects every individual regardless of the industry they are in. I love that I am someone who will have the ability to influence something as impactful as this. I am an outgoing, highly organized, and driven young professional. I graduated from The University of Western Ontario with an undergrad in Business Management and Organizational Studies, specializing in Consumer Behaviour. My desire to further my education lead me to enrol in a post-graduate program at Humber College Institute of Technology and Advanced Learning, where I am currently studying Fashion Management and Promotions. My past 2 summers spent at the Pandora Jewelry Canadian head office, first as a Marketing Intern then subsequently as the Marketing Assistant, allowed me to grow my marketing knowledge, but I also established my fascination for the retail and fashion industries. Upon graduating from Humber College in May 2016, I aspire to develop my merchandising career in a buying or planning role. I believe the combination of my well-rounded educational background and previous work experience would make me a competitive candidate in these fast-paced and analytical positions.
