Summary

I’m a creative and driven professional blending sales expertise, fashion styling, and entrepreneurial spirit. By day, I connect with clients as a tanning salon sales associate, and by passion, I run my own Y2K vintage resale brand, curating fashion, creating content, and building community online.

With experience ranging from backstage at fashion shows to customer service, styling, and digital retail, I thrive in fast-paced environments where adaptability, problem-solving, and creativity matter. Whether it’s helping a client feel their best, styling looks, or managing the details behind the scenes, I bring energy, organization, and innovation to everything I do.

I am a customer-focused and highly adaptable professional with experience spanning sales, fashion styling, vintage reselling, and client services. Currently working as a sales associate at a tanning salon and running my own vintage resale business, I bring a strong background in customer service management, sales, and marketing, paired with creativity and attention to detail.

My experience ranges from fast-paced retail and backstage fashion environments—where I mastered quick changes, garment handling, and teamwork under pressure—to entrepreneurial roles, where I developed skills in inventory management, data entry, digital retail platforms (Depop, Instagram, TikTok), and social media marketing.

I am passionate about style, visual storytelling, and customer experience, with strengths in creative direction, trend curation, personal styling, and project coordination. Known for my reliability, adaptability, and problem-solving, I thrive in high-pressure environments while maintaining professionalism and a positive client experience.
