How did your career begin? And what were you doing before this next chapter of your life started?

Oh gosh, there's so many chapters that have happened.

Um, let's see fashion.

Um, you know, I started young at a young age.

I worked in retail for a retailer and ended up working for the corporate office by the time I was like 17 and was a merchandiser and kind of learned everything there is to know about, uh, product development, uh, factory life.

not only product being made and bought, but also how it translates in the store and in a retail environment.

So that was kind of my schooling.

What was the process like? How was the journey for you?
