Batavia, NY (10/07/2020) — Eleven years ago, Nicole Davis, CEO, designer and Buffalo, NY native, created Franci Jewelry from her kitchen table. Since then, her extensive collections have been featured in prominent fashion weeks around the world including New York, Los Angeles and Paris, worn by celebrity clientele and also published in several national and international magazines, which includes the likes of Vogue Italia. On Wednesday, October 21, 2020 at 11:30 a.m. Davis will share her story virtually through GCC's Fashion Episodes.

All are invited to hear this self-proclaimed "Mompreneur" describe the growth of her business, the importance of understanding one's target markets and making intentional, appropriate business decisions that match that target market.

The knowledge and experience of the faculty and their dedication to their students has produced quality and professional workplace candidates and well-prepared transfer students since the program's inception more than 40 years ago.

Students who complete the track and degree requirements can seamlessly transfer to LIM to complete their B.B.A. in Fashion Merchandising, Visual Merchandising, Marketing or Management.
