Monica Hampton: I Am Barnes & Thornburg

I AM...

• The youngest of 12 siblings and grew up with them in the backwoods of Tennessee
• Part of the most athletic family in town – my strong skill set was track and field (I was a sprinter) – I should have been famous! 
• Proud to hold an associate of arts degree from the Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandise in downtown Los Angeles
• Passionate about all that is fashion. I’ve assisted in various positions in many fashion shows, including a few for Project Runway contestants Michael Costello, Korto Momolu and Jerell Scott
• A wardrobe stylist – self-proclaimed, but nonetheless. I hope to go to Milan Fashion week one day!
• Hopeful to start a fashion stylist blog for mature women
• Obsessed with Bridgerton and love the theater
• A Dallas Cowboys fan for life. Yes, pity me!
• Someone who loves working out on dry sand as a result of living in a beach neighborhood most of my adult life
• Someone who can’t wait for the pandemic to end because I love to travel domestically and internationally
