Where are you from originally and why did you come to Singapore?
I’m from Sydney, Australia. I moved to Singapore in 2010 with my fiancé. What brought us here was a curiosity for change and an opportunity to step outside our comfort zones.
Tell us a bit about your background and foray into fashion.
Well, I’m a lucky, lucky girl! I grew up in “The Hills” of Sydney and I had the most amazing, all-rounded education. But from a young age, I developed a love of fashion. I even started working in retail down at the local shops as soon as I could on Thursday nights, weekends and school holidays! It was here that I truly developed a love for sales, people and, of course, fashion. And now, I have spent the last 20 years in retail and wholesale sales, doing exactly what I love; and with The Wyld Shop I’m building something that I have grown to be super proud of.
What inspired you to create The Wyld Shop in Singapore?
