From the moment I discovered all the amazing fashion magazines of the ’80s, like the captivating MODA, my heart was forever entwined with the world of couture. The allure of those mesmerizing fashion ensembles and the supermodels who graced the pages – Schiffer, Campbell, and Linda Evangelista – left an indelible mark on my young mind. Little did I know that this fascination would fuel a lifelong journey of becoming an integral part of the enchanting realm of fashion.
Defining success has been a nuanced evolution for me. Over time, I’ve come to understand that success isn’t solely about reaching summits; it’s equally about immersing myself in projects, seeing them through with unwavering commitment, and reaping the rewards of my dedication. This ethos has guided my past achievements, remains pertinent today, and will undoubtedly shape my future undertakings.
Among the chapters that define my journey, two standout moments resonate deeply. The first was assuming the role of CEO for a beleaguered leather goods manufacturing company. The second pivotal juncture occurred amidst the formidable challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic when I conceptualized Myclah.com. This digital platform emerged as a haven for artisans and emerging designers, providing them a stage to exhibit and market their creations.
As a woman navigating today’s world, empowerment finds its roots in adaptability, continuous learning, and succeeding across varied domains. My cultural background, enriched by my affinity for foreign languages (I am proficient in five), has served as a cornerstone for both professional interactions and deeper cultural understanding.
From my earliest fascination with fashion to my current exploits in entrepreneurship, I’m steadfastly committed to nurturing creativity, fostering meaningful connections, and embracing the pursuit of excellence in every chapter of life’s adventures.
