Buyer

I have over 6 years of experience in buying, product development, and merchandising. I hold a Bachelor’s of Science in Apparel Design and Merchandising from San Francisco State University where I graduated Cum Laude. I minored in holistic health and focused on fashion ethics and sustainability. 

I am an active individual with a passion for Snowboarding, Yoga, Climbing and Hiking!  Born and raised on the West Coast - I started traveling, camping, and exploring at a young age.  I live an active, outdoor lifestyle and aspire to share those same practices and passions with every individual I encounter.
