WHAT BEING IMPULSIVE TAUGHT ME:

I bought a motorcycle before I knew how to ride it. It was the first time I invested in myself, aside from my career. It taught me more things about myself than anything else could. It helped me to push my limits, react to challenging moments, conquer fears, and to get to know myself better.

I LOVE:

High-intensity jobs with endless asks, much to the chagrin of my physical body. I appreciate working with brands that are inclusive to consumers – something everyone needs or wants vs. womens’ fashion being only specific to the brands’ chosen group.

My last job for Visa required that I conceptualize uniforms for 40 Olympic athletes. The sizing range was unbelievably vast. The process involved communication with multiple agencies, sports managers, The Olympic Committee, my photographer, and producer. The amount of assets captured in one day was a Herculean feat, but we prepped so hard and it resulted into a well-oiled machine on shoot day.

I also loved working on Nespresso with Travis Rathbone. He brings so much beauty to beverages! Without giving away too much about his process – he implements robotics and technology and gets his hands dirty with all aspects of the project. It was such a joy.

THREE THINGS ON MY BUCKET LIST:

Seeing the Dalai Lama speak in Dharamshala. Looking at my feet in the water in the Maldives. Going to Vietnam to meet family I’ve never met and exploring the family tree that dates back to 1418.
