Selected to collaborate on an international AI fashion technology project alongside students from top business schools across the United States while studying abroad at the UAB in Barcelona. The project focused on developing an AI-driven fashion scanner concept designed to enhance the online shopping experience through personalization, fashion discovery, and consumer insights.

 

As the project evolved, I naturally stepped into a leadership role by helping organize communication across the team, keeping projects moving forward, and taking initiative in moments where direction and coordination were needed. Working with individuals from different schools, backgrounds, and perspectives taught me the importance of adaptability, communication, and collaboration in fast-paced creative and business environments.

 

Throughout the project, I became especially interested in the intersection of fashion, technology, consumer behavior, and digital innovation — particularly how AI and data can influence personalization, customer experience, and the future of fashion ecommerce.
