Name: Brian Edwards
Major: Fashion Marketing & Management
Hometown: Marietta, GA
Zodiac: Capricorn
Her Campus: Describe yourself in three words/phrases.
Brian: Cool, funny and nice.
HC: What made you decide to come to SCAD?
Brian: I didn’t want a regular career. I wanted something fun and excited, and SCAD offered that in a fine arts degree.
HC: What has been the most rewarding or exciting part about being a SCAD student?
Brian: My friends! I’ve met some wonderful people here. I even think I found the girl I’m going to marry!
HC: Woah, that’s exciting! So does that mean you’re single or spoken for?
Brian: I’m in between jobs right now? I mean, I guess you can say I’m spoken for.
HC: What’s something you generally notice first about a girl?
Brian: Her hair.
HC: And what does it take for someone to keep you interested?
Brian: A sense of humor.
HC: So what’s something you like to do for fun around town? Describe an ideal date.
Brian: I like to go to different restaurants and experience the wide variety of foods that Savannah has to offer.
HC: Where is the best place you’ve eaten so far?
Brian: Bohemian!
HC: Your favorite food?
Brian: Fried chicken… and watermelon… with some grape soda.
HC: What do you see yourself doing after graduating from SCAD?
Brian: I really want to intern for An Le. He’s a SCAD photography graduate with a lot of experience that I really admire. After that I’d love to design or photograph for McQueen. That’s my dream company.
HC: As a fashion marketing student, who is someone in your field or the general industry that you admire?
Brian: Alexander McQueen. He’s the best thing that ever happened to fashion. He was fearless, believed in the empowerment of women (as I do), and a true visionary who stepped outside of the box. I really like the fact that you can basically look at his work and just know it’s his.
HC: Would you describe your actions as more spontaneous or premeditated?
Brian: Definitely spontaneous.
HC: Outgoing or more reserved?
Brian: It really depends on who I’m around.
HC: A talker or a thinker?
Brian: Again, that’s situational. Around friends I’m a big talker. Around strangers I tend to observe a lot more.
HC: Where can people generally find you on campus?
Brian: *laughs* In my room. I never leave.
