Hello! My name is Chelsea Gordon and I’m a Rochester resident. I am currently pursuing a Bachelor’s of Science in Marketing at RIT, and will graduate in December 2021.
My first collegiate experience was in 2010 at the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising in Los Angeles. I earned an Associate of Arts in fashion design, became a member of Phi Theta Kappa, and graduated magna cum laude. During my studies, I accepted two internships in the Boston area. The first, with independent stylist Christen Mitchell, assisting with developing looks and running photo shoots. The second, working directly with designer David Chum of Selahdor, playing an integral role in the ideation, planning and production of two collections.
Since 2014, I have been a consultant at Susan Deborah Bridal, a high-end bridal boutique in Brighton. I also assist with alterations and manage the social media accounts. In 2018, I managed the rebranding of the store, assisting web designers with content development and organizing the new website. I am proud to have created the boutique’s new logo, displayed on the website, Facebook and Instagram.
Wanting to merge my creative and business passions, I found marketing to be the perfect fit and returned to school. In May 2020 I graduated from Monroe Community College with an Associate’s degree in the liberal arts program with a focus in business administration, joined Phi Theta Kappa and was honored to receive the Academic Achievement award. I transferred to RIT in August 2020 to complete my Bachelor’s degree.
Upon graduating this December, I aim to work for a Rochester marketing agency, utilizing my marketing analytic skills to be a contributing member to this great city of ours!
