CEO and stylist, MFMK
Tell us about your career path.
After my education in Fashion Marketing, I worked in visual presentation at Groupe Dynamite, then as a stylist in the prestigious Holt Renfrew chain. As my creativity blossomed little by little, I started positioning myself towards a career as a stylist. For the next six years, I worked as a freelance stylist. I worked mostly in photography, as well as in customized styling for artists.
Finally, in 2015, I decided to take the leap into entrepreneurship. I founded MFMK, the first website in Canada to offer fashion styling free of charge. Right now I am CEO and stylist at MFMK... and I love it!
And what about your experience at LaSalle College?
I knew I wanted to study at LaSalle College since I was 14 years old. I started that long-awaited program with a lot of ambition.
The annual Signature fashion show, organized during the third year of the program, was a turning point in my career as a stylist. I was the Fashion Director of the show and I could really let my creativity loose.
