Name: Stephanie Foster
Age: 27
Residence: Columbus
Credentials: I took the Fashion & Fabrics class at Northeast Career Center. Upon high school graduation, I received a four-year scholarship to play on the women’s basketball team at Florida A&M University. I also received my Bachelor of Science in broadcast journalism and became a member of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc.
My story: I began sewing in the 11th grade, and it was at that time I knew I wanted my own clothing line. I also played basketball my whole life, and I met a lot of tall women like myself who had trouble finding fashionable clothing that fit correctly. I have taken my own personal woes with clothing and turned them into Prissy Duck Designs! I provide clothing for women of many shapes and sizes. It’s been a long time coming, but I can finally show people what I have to offer!
