”I’ve been having a difficult time finding a great selection of my school's spirit wear on Poshmark, Mercari, eBay, etc. Your idea is just what I am looking for.”
I think this is a great idea because I currently haven’t been able to find affordable college gear.”
“Throughout [high school] I've gotten SO MUCH college apparel, but at the end I'd rather be able to re-sell all the different pieces and get more of my specific college... literally love this idea.”

Patricia is pursuing a Master's in Product Development Engineering at the University of Southern California.
Throughout her time at the undergraduate level, she worked on projects at institutions across the U.S, including the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), UC Berkeley, Stanford, and others which allowed her to experience distinct campus cultures.
In 2019, she launched "college thrifts" from her college dorm after identifying this unmet need faced by college students around the nation.
“college thrifts” commitment to resale is based on Patricia’s desire to create more inclusive college campuses and eliminate waste - one college student at a time ♻️
