LJ

LJ began her career in New York City’s fashion industry, managing global Wholesale Distributors.

LJ began her career in New York City’s fashion industry, working at Coach, managing global Wholesale Distributors. After three years, she transitioned into Operations, focusing on Customer Service and Training for International Markets. This role took her around the world, where she spent nearly six years training hundreds of employees on best practices, customer service standards, and brand engagement. The last three years of her 11-year tenure were in the UK, where she moved to help launch the company’s operations for the UK and Europe.

She then joined Michael Kors, focusing on European Operations and leading a team across Communication, Processes and Procedures, Customer Service best practices, and Training to ensure smooth operations across the region. Her career continued at L’Oréal, where she became Chief Retail Officer, leading the strategic development of People, Retail, Operations, Internal Communications, and Brand Management.

After more than a decade in Fashion and Beauty, LJ decided to shift her focus. For the past four years, she has been fully dedicated to Performance Coaching and Development, helping individuals and teams reach their full potential through targeted coaching and development strategies.

When she’s not working, LJ can often be found hiking — she loves spending time outdoors. At home, she takes care of her collection of over 70 houseplants (yes, her house is practically a jungle!) Music is another passion of hers, and she enjoys singing or playing the piano whenever possible.
