Our culture is collaborative, entrepreneurial, and deeply people-first, where every team member plays a role in shaping meaningful experiences for our Stylists and clients.

• Collaborate cross-functionally with Marketing and Field teams to translate assortment intent into hero items, outfitting stories, and seasonal themes that are clear and ready for field selling, marketing content, and launch moments.
