Fashion Designer

Hello everyone, my name is Lisa, I was born in Shanghai, China. I have always liked a free life since I was a child, but because of my parents, I chose financial management in college because my father wanted me to help his business.

After graduation, I helped my father for a year, and I found that this was not what I wanted, so I started my design work in a local clothing company with my good friend, but a year later he went to Riverisland as a designer, and invited me a year later, until now.

For me, doing what I love, living without worries, being healthy, and my parents are safe and sound are the best things given by God
