Rachel Owusu-Ansah

I've always been someone who has stood out in terms of fashion and taste! I have my own unique style and perspective and started to hone in on this a few years ago when I started to share my outfits on Instagram. I decided to capitalize on this talent in April 2023 and I've been showing up and learning more about my craft. Since then, I've worked with plenty of creative professionals, creating content, and styling influencers and models. I've also decided to go to school to learn the ins and outs of the fashion business. I currently attend George Brown College for Fashion Business Industry and I am looking for an E-commerce styling role where I can add value to an organization!
