> CEO & Founder of 12th Tribe

Founder of 12th Tribe, an influencer driven D2C fashion e-commerce brand with revenue in the eight figures. 

I bootstrapped my way with an initial investment of $800 as a solo entrepreneur to one of the fastest growing fashion e-commerce brands. We grew our social media following to over 400k, have been a leader in influencer marketing, and are one of the rare brands to maintain profitability along the way.
