A message from our Co-Presidents and COO:
As we reflect on the 9th annual MFMS, we could not be more proud of what we created. After a year of hard work, we entered the summit grounded in the original mission of the MFMS: to connect students with powerhouses in the fashion and media industries and serve as a stepping stone for professional development on Michigan’s campus.
However, we are only as strong as the company we keep, and we feel incredibly lucky to be surrounded by such a passionate, thoughtful, and creative team. You are truly the backbone of MFMS, and there’s no other group we would have rather done this with.
We also want to thank our incredible steering committee for their guidance and support in bringing to life the vision they established nine years ago.
MFMS has been a transformative experience for all three of us, and we are so grateful to have had the opportunity to lead this team and help execute what we hope is considered the best summit yet. Although we will be moving into our next chapters, we cannot wait to see what MFMS accomplishes in year 10 and beyond!
Signing off,
RMW
