My name is Carolina Castro and I am a first-year Marketing student at the University of Florida. Having grown up in Miami, Florida and being of Cuban descent, I have always been surrounded by diverse cultures which has led me to see the value of inclusion and the importance of embracing our differences. Alongside this, I am naturally curious and have several interests I would like to explore. I am interested in marketing and analytical research as a means of attracting consumers and reaching a broad audience. I am also interested in editorial work and the ways in which publishers use advertorials to promote companies and individuals. At the intersection of all my interests is, and has always been, fashion. From playing dress-up as a kid, to now analyzing runways and styling more intricate pieces, fashion has always been at the forefront of my mind. I hope to take my interests and skills in marketing and editorial work into the fashion industry, and am eager to learn and gain experience in all fields to heighten my knowledge.
