From thinking I'd be an ACCOUNTANT to helping Creators build 6-figure businesses — my career path looks like me trying to draw a snowman blindfolded 😅 For real though, I spent YEARS forcing myself into boxes that didn't quite fit: ⚖️ Accounting (sorry papa, I tried 😭) 🧩 Project Management (Gantt Charts? ehhhhhhh) 🏢 Traditional corporate path (the voices in my head sounding like Shia LaBeouf: JUST DO IT!!!) Plot twist: Every "detour" on the side was actually leading me to exactly where I needed to be. 👖 Those retail jobs at lululemon and Saint Laurent? Taught me the POWER of genuine connection 📱 The content creation at Alexander Wang? Sparked my obsession with the creator economy. 💜 Starting off in customer support at Stan? Changed my entire LIFE trajectory. Today, I'm a Creator Partnerships Manager at Stan(Shoutout to my mama for advocating the relationship management path). Now I get to witness MAGIC every single day: 🙆🏻‍♀️ Women teaching others how to conquer binge eating 👔 Finance Bros selling their budget templates 🎨 Creatives selling their art across the globe I've spoken to hundreds of Creators and witnessed every single one of them create a life they were truly meant to live by starting their own business leveraging their expertise. What lights me up: ✨ Helping creators realize their "weird" passion is their million-dollar idea 🗣️ Talking/Yapping (catch me at Re:Create Summit 2025, Sep 6th!) 🧥 Fashion babyyyyyyy - still bringing the fits from my retail days 💪 Anddd movement, I hate sitting still, enough said My journey in a nutshell: Trad. mindset of School to Corporate path ->Luxury Retail → Customer Support → Creator Partnerships The lesson: Your path doesn't need to make sense to anyone but YOU If you're feeling lost, pivoting careers, or think your skills are "random" — we should definitely chat! I've been there, and I promise those breadcrumbs are leading somewhere beautiful 🥹 Let's connect and share war stories about non-traditional paths 🤝 P.S. Yes, I still rock my fits at Stan, so don't you think you'll catch me wearing any Patagonia 🫵 😤
