My name is Caitlyn Bray and currently, I’m a senior attending Kent State University, double majoring in Fashion Design and Fashion Merchandising. I’m originally from Atlanta, Georgia, but I have lived in Dallas, Texas all my life. As my father says, I am a ‘double minority’ as not only a Black person but also a woman. My goal and interest in fashion is to run a fashion empire with like-minded women and men of the culture.

The industry loves to profit off the backs of minorities, especially Black women. My brand will credit people of color from different areas of the world, with the highlight on Black women.

This fashion house will serve as a community where people of color can come together and receive the credit they deserve. My abilities, passion, and character will allow me to not only solve this fault in the industry but also improve upon it in the future.
