About me
The pursuit of happiness; Ever since I was a young girl, I’ve always been passionate for fashion. I was travelling to Paris every 3 months from the island where I’m coming from to find the most unique pieces. After been graduated I made my dream come true and move to the french capital to work in retail. But after a while one of my biggest fear changed everything; not be able to make the most of my twenties. I didn’t want to have any regrets and live this moment of my life fully. I quit retail and move to hospitality in order to finance my travels and my expenses. Finally, in my thirties I found my priority in what makes me really happy every single day and I went naturally back in retail where my dreams started. One day someone said, “find the job you love, and you will never have to work again,” here is my philosophy. I am passionate in all aspect of the visual merchandising; strategic, analytic, creative. Every floor set and events are a new motivation, experience and success. I became an expert through the years in organization and communication skills.
