Social Media Page: a post from one of my social media accounts, promoting The American Heart Association and the Go Red For Women campaign. 

This entire presentation is inspired by the campaign, "Go Red for Women", which allowed me to create an entirely red dress, and take inspiration from my grandmother. This project allowed me to have the freedom to create and design a dress that honors the memory of my grandmother who has passed away.
