|FAT| ARTS & FASHION WEEK 2015

Screenshot (1)I’m sooo EXCITED to be apart of |FAT| Arts & Fashion Week 2015 Celebrating it’s 10th Year Anniversary! I owe so much of my life to this great event. Seven years ago I volunteered as a backstage dresser, happy to be apart of an influential event within Canada. Two years later I was honored to receive the position of Backstage Production Coordinator, working directory with over 40 talented designers, managing around 100 models and prepping/organizing the chaos of the backstage life. Yes…VANJA (founder and CEO of |FAT|) THANK YOU (from the button of my heart) for taking a chance with me…as Ms. Frizzle would say…take chances, make mistakes and get messy!
