As an example, a student who considers Store Design their strength can partner with a student who specializes in Visual Merchandising. Collaborating or adapting your strengths and areas of design study can lead to improved work when looking at a situation from a fresh perspective.
The challenge- Evolve the in-store customer experience to exceed Gen-Z expectations of what it means to discover at Ulta Beauty.

The possibilities are beautiful.
