"He wasn't crying because it was his success and his clothes... it was more that he was walking down for the community. That is so important... my ethnicity is very important to me and I'm proud of it."
Today I am featuring my good friend and neighbor, Aaminah Din. Aaminah was studying to become a lawyer in Scotland then decided to take a dream trip to Paris which changed her career trajectory. Being enthralled in the energy of Fashion Week convinced her to start learning and researching everything she could about the fashion industry. She now works at Farfetch, a leading e-commerce fashion/tech company that went public in September 2018 and was named as one of Fast Company's 50 most innovative companies in 2016. It is one of the fashion industry’s only “unicorns” that provides a platform for consumers to buy luxury fashion from boutiques and brands around the world.
In this episode, we discuss how to visualize your goals, networking tips, and the importance on diversity by “doing it for we, not me.” Aaminah also discusses how DJ Khaled has impacted her morning routine and reminds her to be grateful every single day.
