This is my inaugural post to mark an exciting time of new beginnings in my life. I am proud to share this diary of my experiences with you. But first, let me introduce myself:
I'm a shopper.
I always loved shopping, so when shopping forced its way into my career path I didn't protest. But when people ask, "what do you do?" I don't have any easy answer. I do not have a business card that says Marketing Director/Small Business Owner/Fashion Stylist/TV contributer/Blogger/Shopaholic...but that's the best description I have for my profession.
I started Styled.Seattle, my personal shopping business after I became the resident stylist on KOMO-TVs Northwest Afternoon. Styled.Seattle began as a passion project, and (as passions tend to do) took on a life of it's own. I now devote as much time as possible to this venture, and I'm always accepting new clients.
But I have a day job, too. After 3 years as the Director of Marketing and PR at John Robert Powers Acting/Modeling, I was offered the opportunity (dare I say, of a lifetime) to head up marketing for ClayValet, a free online personal shopping service. If you haven't heard of it yet, you will. The concept of ClayValet is so brilliant, it may put all personal shoppers (including myself) out of business. And you know, I believe in it so much that I don't even care. Much.
ClayValet launched on Black Friday, Nov. 23rd. The biggest shopping day of the year for most people (very fitting, no?). Check it out at clayvalet.com, and let us know what you think!
That's me in a nutshell. I will use this blog to share shopping and styling tips, advice and stories from my professional and personal life. Thanks for reading!
Enjoy!
