Jessica Walsh, RHS Class of 2004, on Forbes Magazine's 30 Under 30 List

Congratulations to Jessica Walsh for being one of Forbes Magazine's "30 Under 30 in Arts & Style" ~ a list of individuals who are "creating and designing the future, from the street to the runway!"

For the past few years, Forbes Magazine has published an elite list of "young game changes, moves and makers" all under 30-years of age.  These individuals are sorted into 20 different categories, ranging from Venture Capital to Education, Marketing and Advertising to Healthcare, Science to Arts & Style, and are making great strides in their field of interest at a young age. 

Earlier in the week, we highlighted Shaena Montanari, a Ridgefield High School graduate on the "2015 30 Under 30 in Science." But another alumni of Ridgefield High School is also among the elite. Jessica Walsh, Ridgefield High School Class of 2004, is on the "2015 30 Under 30 in Arts & Style" list.

 

Here is what Forbes has to say about why Jessica is among the elite:
