Work History

Key Holder

Fie Isole

- I recently wrapped up a consulting project with Fie Isolde, helping them identify high-quality diamond sources and develop some creative sourcing strategies. That experience reinforced my passion for design and quality of fine goods, and I’m now looking a part-time or a full-time opportunity where I can bring both local and distant relationships to a growing brand. And Holden feels like exactly where I should be.
