My love for fashion has been a constant in my life. While accompanying my mother to beautiful stores in my hometown and on family travels around the world, I learned how the clothes we wear have an impact on our sense of self. To create a beautiful wardrobe of my own, I paid close attention to fashion trends and how people wore them.

In high school, I got my first taste of the retail world while working at Barneys New York, which opened my eyes to cutting edge design and how to incorporate it in everyday fashion.

Like a magical unicorn, Clare has created some AMAZING looks in the last 24 hours. I don’t know how she does it.

In college, I spent a semester abroad in Florence, Italy studying fashion design with a Swedish designer. Creating my own collection, drawing inspiration from my European travels that semester, helped me appreciate the artistic process that goes into bringing fashion to life.

After graduating from the Leeds School of Business at the University of Colorado Boulder, I started my career in marketing, and was fortunate to live in cities like San Francisco, New York, and Miami – places brimming with style and inspiration.

Travel remains a constant in my life and is my biggest source of inspiration. Stemming from my dream of being an archaeologist, travel brings the element of discovery that I love. Being on the hunt, and especially being the first to find extraordinary things excites me.

Today, as a mom of two energetic children, and a full time Investor Relations professional at a public MedTech company, I continue to follow my love for fashion and helping people feel great. Connecting with people, discovering their unique qualities and how to translate that into their everyday style, and making them feel great in the process, is what brings me joy. Whether it is curating looks for a vacation, an event, a family photo or creating a seasonal capsule, what I love the most is the process of connecting and sharing my passion.
