I started my fashion career attending design school in Toronto, Canada and at a young age always had hopes and dreams of having my own retail clothing store.

After graduating I worked in two of Canada’s leading buying departments, Holt Renfrew and Club Monaco. It was there where I truly discovered my passion for creativity, fashion and design. I thoroughly enjoyed my time there but felt there was something more that lie ahead and I knew I always wanted something of my own.

I made the decision to take some time off and did some travelling and soul searching. When I returned after much deliberation, I began my career in the wealth industry. Born to two successful executives in the banking world this felt like the right decision at the time and like so many of us on our path, I took the job “I thought I should do”. You know, the one that looks safest on paper!

Fast forward 20 years, a loving husband and two beautiful children this path allowed me to support my family. I loved the community of women I had built and advising and supporting them on all areas of wealth but, something was missing. I decided I wanted to continue to inspire and empower women but, in a space, where I could also be creative and embrace my true self. Woven was born not only out of my love for quality woven fabrics and textiles but also to embody a community of women woven together.

As a mom of two girls, it is my mission to lead by example and empower and inspire them to nurture their creativity. By following my passion, I hope to give them the confidence to follow their dreams!
