Shopping Is Always In Season!
My passion for fashion began at a young age while growing up along the coast of Maine. I would browse shops and boutiques with my mother, and from those experiences, knew I was destined for a career in fashion. I later graduated from Lasell College with a bachelor's degree in fashion merchandising and a master's degree in marketing. I then landed my first job in fashion at a high-end hat boutique in Boston. It was during my time there that I discovered my talent for personal styling. I dressed and accessorized women attending the Kentucky Derby, elite parties in Boston, and a high profile wedding in London.
Finding myself back in Maine, I assumed the roles of store-manager and co-buyer at a high-end women's boutique. It was there, alongside many buying trips to New York City, that I mastered my ability to style women, of any age. I moved to Orlando and became a dress specialist for Ralph Lauren where I developed many personal relationships and eventually led to me forming, "Courtini", my personal shopping service.
As a personal shopper I am able to deliver personalized style. Being based in Orlando (an international shopping mecca), provides me access to wide ranging designer fashions at affordable prices which I pass on to my clients. There is nothing that makes me happier than helping women feel fabulous... and life is too short to not feel fabulous!
