How long have you been working at Maude?: "I have been working at Maude since December of 2021, so about a year and a half now! I started working at Maude my senior year of high school, and now am going to be a sophomore in college. I was so beyond excited when I got this job because I have always been passionate about fashion and styling outfits and I wanted to help others with that as well, and help them feel confident in their outfit!"
Why do you love working at Maude?: "I love working at Maude because it has the most amazing group of women and has always had such a positive energy! The environment is so welcoming and loving no matter what and I just can’t get over how many friendships I have made here! It truly is a place that I can call my second home! Whenever I walk into Maude it never fails to put a smile on my face!"
What is your major/ dream job?: "My major is Apparel Merchandising and Product Development with a minor in Business. After I graduate college, I would love to move to a big city like New York and work there as a fashion buyer. After that I would love to come back to the NWA area and open my own business and have my own boutique. Ever since I started working at Maude, I knew I wanted to have my own store one day. Our owner Becca, has had such an impact on me and has for sure influenced me to want to own my own business in life!"
How would you describe your personal style?: "I would describe my personal style as very vibrant and trendy. I tend to go more with the trends, which of course right now is costal grandmother/granddaughter but I also love bright colors and anything that is a statement piece! I have been so into dresses lately and have probably worn one every day of summer! My style inspiration has to come from a lot of the maude girls if I am being honest! All my co workers have different styles and it’s so cool to see what they paired together! It for sure gives me ideas on what I should style next! I would also say I’ve been obsessed with Kennedy Crichlow and Mary Ralph Lawsons style. They own a brand called daily drills that I am also obsessed with. Their styles are so cute and give off street style but in a classy way!"
If you had to put together an outfit(s) from Maude what would you choose and why?: "I chose the Levi’s Ribcage jeans with our Sage Striped Button Down. The Levi’s Ribcage jeans are one of our best sellers and they have always been such a staple in my closet! They go with absolutely everything and can be dressed up or down! The Sage Button Down is one of my new favorites because buttons downs are so in style right now! They are so versatile and can be thrown on with jeans, shorts, or even as a swim cover up! I love to style mine with tons of gold jewelry!"

What's a typical Saturday look like for you?: "A typical Saturday for me could either be working at Maude or spending time with family and friends! I love going to the lake and I going shopping around NWA. Iced coffee has become my weakness and you can either catch me grabbing one from Onyx or Arsagas and then for dinner I love to go to Local Lime or Tavola!"
What are you looking forward to most for this upcoming school year?: "I think I am most excited to just be back in Fayetteville and to hangout with all my friends. I love tailgating and going to all the football games. I'm also excited to get more into my classes for my major. I also get to live in my sorority house this year, so it will be really fun to live so close to all my friends!"
