University of Wisconsin-Stout's video: UW-Stout Grad Day in the Life: Mary Cross 19 Head Designer at DSG Outerwear

Hi all! My name is Mary Cross & I graduated from UW Stout in 2019 with a BS in Apparel Design & Development (now Fashion and Retail). In school, I loved learning the in's and out's of fashion design from conceptualizing ideas to production. The program does a really great job at tackling the technical side of design which really helped give me an edge when finding a career. AD&D was a pretty rigorous program, but it's that rigor that has helped me become the designer I am today.
