How do you spend your days? I’m the Founder of Kinn Studio.What does a typical work day look like for you? Each day is allocated toward items I want to accomplish, i.e. Tuesdays are for anything related to branding, Wednesdays are for operations and performance.
Where is your office located? Downtown Los Angeles How do you keep track of your to-do list? I love my calendar and digital checklists. Is it bad that sometimes I do text to myself so I don’t forget? Daily work uniform? Don’t have one. I change up a bit depending on what kind of day I have ahead. But my fave go to is straight light wash denim with a clean tshirt, accessorized by my #nevertakeoff jewelry stacks. Must have item in your work bag? Emi Jay hair clip, Rhode peptide lip treatment, French Girl cuticle oil, Salt&Stone hand cream, pencil and a small notepad.
Favorite part of your job? I get to build what I love and we get to be a part of other people’s journeys and milestones.Favorite mid-afternoon pick me up during a day in the office? Love a good boba: Boba Guys Jasmine Milk tea w/ boba or a classic Matcha latte with almond milk with a little honey.
