ABOUT ME

Hello!

My name is Ansley Fincher. I am a recent graduate from the Savannah College of Art & Design. I received my B.F.A in Fashion Marketing & Management, in November 2020.

With over five years of retail experience in clothing, accessories, and beauty, I am able to effectively understand and act upon customers’ expectations and needs. My experience in retail has also allowed me to become familiar with visual merchandising by enhancing and setting up store displays to increase retail sales. This has also allowed me to make decisions with the customer in mind, for the future success of the business. I excel in fast-paced environments, and I am quick in learning new skills that will further enhance success, not only for my future, but for the company’s future, as well. I am goal and task-oriented, as well as organized, which enables me to meet deadlines, and prioritize my tasks and work, in an efficient manner. I also work well with others, to meet and exceed the tasks and goals for the company.  I am always creating exciting, and innovative ideas to achieve solutions to new challenges that arise within my job. I am driven, energetic, and passionate about the tasks I work on, and will always encourage myself, as well as my team to achieve results that exceed expectations. I also have an eye for detail, as well as product, which enables me to spot new trends in the industry, and make decisions with consumer preferences in mind, to drive growth in sales. This also allows me to display products in a unique way to catch the consumer’s eye.

Through my studies at SCAD, I have confidently gained experience in creating marketing and merchandising plans for new & current products, as well as, brands. Furthermore, I have experience in product development, which has enabled me to enhance my skills in market research, competitive analysis, and trend forecasting. I have also enhanced my skills in presentation, communication, and writing. I also have developed buying plans for brands, which has developed my skills in retail math, as well as using software programs, such as Excel. I have also developed skills in creating marketing & merchandising plans for e-commerce. Through projects, I have also developed collaboration and leadership skills. 

​

My goal is to always expand my knowledge in the industry, as well as, my skills.
