What do you plan to do after you graduate?

I am graduating in 2022 and by the time I am graduating , I would have started my own African print inspired bomber jacket business for women and kids. I would also like to curate a fashion exhibition that will showcase my take on both sung and unsung heroes black civil rights activists.
