“It is about a search, too, for daily meaning as well as daily bread, for recognition as well as cash, for astonishment rather than torpor; in short, for a sort of life rather than a Monday through Friday sort of dying.”

My Story

What is one thing about your work that most people don't know?

What people don't really know about the work I do is that it really does take time and effort. People just think retail is to put out the clothes and do whatever. But it's more about the analytics, the demographics, psychographics, and our desire to style people to make themselves feel good.

What makes you most proud of the work you do?

Work to me is just a means to make money which helps us survive in society. Now vocation is something different, it's doing something you are meant to do and making sure you love what you do and seeing how that benefits others. Right now my job is just a step in my ladder to success.
