It’s been 2 weeks since the new year started. Before I can welcome this new year with new beginnings, I want to look back at the last year and be thankful for the moments and people who shaped me.
Kreeya.com: My biggest achievement both personally and professionally was that I quit my job and started my own company, Kreeya.com. Through Kreeya.com I wanted to connect local fashion designers with people who want to make a statement through independent and unique fashion.
We launched in Nov 2010 and over a period of 3 months, we had partnered with a dozen independent designers from San Francisco and a couple of guest designers from Los Angeles and Barcelona. I still remember the morning when we got our first sale. I was sooooooooo excited. And the excitement kept on growing with sales that followed, including repeat sales and sales from different states. We were just so proud of it all. Who is “we”? It was a team of 3 people – Caroline, Rachel and I. Here is a snapshot of “About Us” page when we launched:
There is a 4th person, who even though not part of Kreeya, was critical to Kreeya’s success – Neil. He is the person who gave me courage every time I needed it and was there to celebrate small victories which I tend to forget because I was so busy in looking where we needed to go.
Thanks Caroline, Rachel and Neil for being part of my biggest adventure of last year and of my life so far.
