Say Hello: @janicejoi

Tell me something about yourself that people in your profession would find interesting.

After college, I worked in corporate banking for 3 years, before finally pursing my dream to work in fashion in NYC.   

How did you meet Nur?

I met Nur almost 9 years ago through mutual friends at Pop Burger in the meatpacking district.  She was gravitating, mysterious, and an all around go-getter that exudes great energy.  From that day on we became friends and have made some of my favorite memories in NYC that I will always cherish.

Most treasured way you spent time in 2018? 

Summer days with my 6-year-old nephew - he's a newbie to NYC, so it was amazing exploring the city with his intuitive mind.

What advice would you give someone who's leaving NYC and moving to a new city?

As cliche as the saying is - it couldn't be more true...if you can make here, you can make it ANYWHERE.
