With education in Philosophy (University of Latvia, Latvia), Strategic Management (Riga Stradins University, Latvia) and Fashion Communication (Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design, United Kingdom), for the past 15 years I have successfully worked in the fields of business development, wholesale, retail, marketing and communication.I started out in the industry in 2009 by organising internationally critically acclaimed fashion, art and music event “Moment” (www.youtube.com/user/eventMOMENT/videos), and soon after launching the business of designers "Mareunrol's" (www.mareunrols.com) - the only Baltic label that has so far presented their work as part of the official program of Paris Fashion Week.In 2013 I co-founded fashion wholesale, retail and communication agency “Vald” (www.valdagency.com). Since then I have been part of the agency's management board, responsible for leading and motivating our team, as well as for business development and growth of agency's designers, including such names as Henrik Vibskov, Viktor&Rolf, Eckhaus Latta, Building Block, Anne Sofie Madsen, Flat Apartment and others.Since 2023 I've taken up a role as commercial director at Henrik Vibskov (www.henrikvibskov.com), where I'm developing, planning and implementing business opportunity strategies.Guest lectures and juries:■ Member of jury for Esmod/Isem Paris' Fashion Business program's 2017 graduation projects■ Lecture "Brave New World.
