Gia's a fashion freelancer who’s worked with huge names like Northface and Columbia Sportswear as well as small startup brands. Her eye for technical design and product development plus her friendly personality and hard working attitude is why most of her freelance gigs have luckily fallen right into her lap. In this interview, Gia and I chat about why your network is the best resource for new work, why it’s ok to charge premium prices, and creative ways to break into the industry without going to fashion school and starting with no experience. You will learn: The importance of going above and beyond in all the work you do Why it’s ok not to ask a lot of questions and not know everything How to get started in the industry without any experience The pros and cons of charging hourly vs by project and when to choose what Why the people you already know are the best resource for future opportunities Guest Info & Resources: Gia's Site Connect with Gia on LinkedIn Kathleen Fasanella Enjoy the show?
