Sokhom Chea

I was born and raised in Phnom Penh, Cambodia and was born into a Cambodian-Chinese family. I can speak three languages fluently, including Mandarin Chinese, Cambodian(Khmer), and English. The environment and education system could not fulfill my interests and to support me in becoming a fashion designer. I came to the United States, attended FIDM (Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising) and earned my Associate of Arts degree in fashion design in 2017. I want to become an evening-wear designer so I thought that Otis College of Art and Design would be a good fit for my future goals. I decided to join Otis Fashion family in 2018 and I am currently, a new graduate from BFA in Fashion Design with sustainability minor. My goal still has not changed. I want to become an eveningwear designer. My ultimate goal is to launch my brand specializing in evening wear and bridal wear.
