My name is Regina Figueroa Bautista, I am student-athlete at TMU, in my fourth year of Professional Communication and member of the TMU Varsity Figure Skating team.

Figure skating has always been my passion, whereas choosing a career path after graduation needed more exploration. It was not until I took an Introduction to UX/UI Design course in my third year that I became certain of my career goals.

My interest in clothing encouraged me to pursue a minor in Fashion, and my passion for fashion design and e-commerce ultimately inspired me to do this research project.
