Career history / Company history:
I studied in Colombia business administration and after a year working in marketing and sales I decided to travel to Europe.

I have not experience on the fashion industry but I do have a big passion for environmental and social projects and this is why I want to start my own business on the ethical industry with the big objective of supporting local communities back in my country and South America.
