What was the best business advice you ever received?

Do not underestimate your skill and creativity. Believe in your own value.

If you could choose another profession, what would it be?

I would want to work with animals, specifically in rehabilitating abused animals. My pets are all rescued, and watching my feral cat becoming a lap cat is quite amazing although it takes years of patience and care.

What's the biggest risk you have taken in your career?

Moving from New York to Florida and starting this business and working for myself.

If you could travel anywhere in the world, where would you start?

I would like to see India, partly because of all the fabric there. I also practice yoga, which originated in ancient India.
