Please tell us a little bit about yourself.
I'm driven by a desire to create positive change, and I'm particularly passionate about early childhood education and empowering women. My work in childcare reflects this commitment. I'm a mother of three, and my family calls both New York City and Europe home. I thrive in collaborative environments, focusing on building bridges rather than walls, and bringing positive energy to everything I do.
What does the AERA family mean to you?
Being part of the AERA family is a privilege. It's community of inspiring women who are not only incredibly successful in their own fields but also united by a shared commitment to creating positive change. For me, it's incredibly meaningful to be part of a community so dedicated to sustainability and ethical practices, in this case through beautifully crafted, sustainable footwear. It's a source of both professional inspiration and personal connection.
What is your favorite shoe from AERA?
Claudia as a heel and Jackie as a flat.

Effortless, sophisticated, timeless
What advice would you give to future women in business?
Embrace your authentic self and your unique strengths. Be gentle with yourself. Don't be afraid to forge your own path. Invest in quality—in your relationships, your work, and in your own growth. Prioritize sustainability and ethical practices; they are not just trends but fundamental values that can guide your success. Remember that building bridges, not walls, is the most effective way to achieve your goals and make a positive impact on the world. Most importantly, never compromise your values for fleeting success. Your vision, authenticity, and commitment to excellence will shine through, and that's what will make you truly unforgettable.
