Throughout my professional career, corporate finance has been my primary focus. While it did provide financial stability and the opportunity to forge wonderful relationships, deep down, I found myself feeling rather unhappy.  Sitting in an office all day stressing over numbers was not where I wanted to be.  Since I was a little girl, I have always loved pretty things.  So much so that when I saw an item in a store with exceptionally pretty packaging, I would buy it regardless of what the product was.
