My Story

“Dark Truth of the Fashion Industry” — A memoir about ageism, power, and reinvention.

For more than two decades, I built a career in fashion — leading teams, shaping brands, and dedicating my life to a craft I loved. But when age-based discrimination entered the picture, everything shifted. What should have been a chapter of growth became a fight for dignity, identity, and truth.

Instead of staying silent, I wrote my story.

My memoir reveals what happens behind closed doors — the subtle dismissals, the erasure, the psychological toll, and the courage it takes to stand back up. It is a testament to resilience, the value of experience, and a voice for anyone who has ever been pushed aside because of the age on their résumé.

This book is the heart of why the Age Equity Foundation exists.

Your story matters — and no one should be erased.
