How do I get my dream job in the fashion industry?
Through 8 short lessons I will share my advice on how to get a job in the fashion industry, grow within your role, and thrive in your career and beyond.
I’ve worked in the fashion industry for over 25 years.
I’ve worked for leading brands all over the world, lived in 4 countries, pivoted my career and started my own business.
In the past 3 years I’ve grown my audience on LinkedIn from 0-over 30,000 followers, and built a global network through personal branding.
If I can do it, you can too.
“You don’t have to see the whole staircase,
just take the first step.”
- Martin Luther King Jr.
The fashion industry is evolving fast.
The job market is competitive, unpredictable, and demanding more from talent than ever before.
If you're determined to stand out, build a meaningful career, and land the role you truly want - you're in the right place.
I see you. I’ve been where you are.
With over 25 years in the Fashion Industry, I’ve worked my way from a Buying Admin Assistant to Head of Department, lived and worked in four different countries, and travelled the world building a career with purpose.
I’ve navigated big pivots, rebuilt my path more than once, and eventually took the leap to launch my own business.
None of it was easy. But tenacity, clarity, and strategy made every step possible.
Today, as a LinkedIn Top Voice with a global community and deep industry insight, I’m sharing the real, practical advice I wish I had earlier in my career - so you can move forward with confidence, clarity, and momentum.
