My Journey to the Top

Please fill in the following information and we'll email this link.
After college, I moved to New York and started all over again as a personal shopper at a store in northern New Jersey. I slowly transitioned into personal styling, which opened a new world of opportunity.
Eventually, I was styling for music videos through my now husband, Damon Dash.
Damon saw me as someone who stood out in terms of style in the music industry and who was resolved in her opinions. He invited me to style the female artists on his label, which was during an exciting time of growth at his company, as he had decided to begin a clothing line. I couldn't have been happier about it.
After about six years I approached the owners about doing a collection beyond T shirts and sweats, which they all loved, but then Damon sold his portion of the company, so I left when he left. Eventually Damon backed me in my own line, which I've been doing for four years now.
I give women the means to express themselves and be who they are and who they aspire to be, and I think there is a real beauty in this.
