The fashion creative director for many years had a fairly simple job description: to oversee the design and aesthetics of the brand, with a focus on product.But over time, particularly in the last five years, that role has become much more amorphous. Creative directors are expected to shape a brand’s entire presence, including the look and feel of fashion shows and marketing. For those who are also brand founders, the role ensures control over big business decisions. Meanwhile, for others, the title translates to being the public face of the brand on social media; widely collaborating, on behalf of their brand or independently; or putting their creative prowess to use in areas outside of fashion, like music, design, art and architecture.  The shift has meant that fashion brands are increasingly seeking creative directors with larger public presences and far-ranging visions. Creative directors like Kim Jones at Dior, Alessandro Michele at Gucci and Matt Williams at Givenchy typify this new generation of young creative directors with eclectic visions who can speak to a younger audience. The collaborative, wide-open nature of modern fashion, as well as the dominance of social media, has led to creative directors needing to wear many hats at…

Sharelle Rosado has made a career out of trusting her gut.The 33-year-old launched her real estate company, Allure Realty, in Tampa, Fl., in 2019 after retiring from the military. Soon, she was courting offers from reality TV producers about a potential show built around her firm.Though the prospect of starring in a show was appealing, she worried that she and her agents at Allure, all of whom are women of color, would be portrayed as catty and materialistic, rather than as hard-working and outspoken entrepreneurs. "I didn't want to be stereotyped," Rosado says.Instead of settling for the first offer, she decided to Twitter message a producer of the popular Netflix series Selling Sunset, which follows a team of luxury real estate agents in Los Angeles.The producers, knowing the luxury waterfront market would be appealing to viewers, were sold. Ahead of the premiere of the new Netflix show, Selling Tampa, on Dec. 15, here's a look at Rosado's path from teenaged motherhood to founding her own luxury real estate firm.From the military to luxury real estateRosado grew up in a small town in Alabama with her mother and two siblings. Though her mother worked hard to set a good example for…

Oscar Lujan is the first member of his family to pursue a degree in higher education.When Lujan received the Lumberjack Scholarship in 2015, he decided to take the first step of his college career by moving away from his hometown of Phoenix to Flagstaff. Upon his arrival, he joined the Successful Transition and Academic Readiness (STAR) program.“I had no idea what to expect from college, especially at the university level,” he said. “Not only did the STAR program connect me with other students who were facing similar concerns, but I felt confident in myself that I could be the first in my family to complete a college degree.”During Lujan’s freshman year, he was accepted into the Initiative for Maximizing Student Diversity (IMSD) program—a program funded by the National Institutes of Health that allows undergraduate students from underrepresented backgrounds to work in a lab while getting paid. Lujan applied to join the Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine (TERM) lab run by Robert Kellar, associate professor of practice in the Department of Biological Sciences.“I had a high school background in science and no laboratory experience, yet Dr. Kellar took a chance on me and allowed me to join his lab,” Lujan said.He…

There’s been a big boom in inclusive sizing within women’s fashion over the past few years. From smaller brands like Universal Standard to global brands like Old Navy, these companies have focused on expanding the number of sizes they carry, breaking down the barriers between size categories and ensuring every customer feels included.But so far, the vast majority of these efforts have focused exclusively on women’s fashion. Universal Standard only makes clothes for women and Old Navy’s sweeping Bodequality campaign only affects its women’s clothes. Men’s fashion, comparatively, is far behind in terms of size inclusivity. Data from Statista shows that men’s plus-size fashion has actually decreased in value over time, dropping from over a billion dollars in 2020 to $850 million in 2021. This hasn’t coincided with any change in the average American man’s size. The average American man’s waist size is 40 inches, with 38 inches usually being the start of “plus-size.” But there are apparel brands that have made some progress toward expanding men’s size offerings. When Madewell launched men’s jeans in 2019, for example, one of the stated goals was to bring the same level of size inclusivity and the same focus on correct fit that…

Cleveland ranks as the least-connected city in the United States, of cities with 100,000 households or more—preventing many Cleveland students from accessing the digital leaning resources and tools that are necessary in today’s digital learning environment. The center will be equipped with Dell computers, high-speed AT&T fiber Internet and Wi-Fi, as well as educational and digital literacy content.As parents and educators continue to search for ways to close the digital divide, AT&T has stepped in to narrow that gap with its new AT&T Connected Learning Centers. Earlier this year the company announced it would be opening 20 Connected Learning Centers across the country as part of its Connected Learning program—part of a three-year $2 billion commitment to bridge the digital divide through efforts that promote broadband affordability, accessibility, and adoption— and Cleveland would be one of the first eight cities to get a Center. AT&T in September launched its first Connected Learning Center in Dallas, where AT&T is headquartered. This Wednesday, Dec. 15, AT&T will unveil its Connected Learning Center at Esperanza, Inc., the nonprofit community center in the Clark-Fulton neighborhood—making the center among the first to open in the country. Esperanza, which is dedicated to improving academic achievement among Hispanic students,…
