"Since opening the first D’NA store in 2006, it has become a platform for emerging talent. Part of what makes my job exciting is the thrill of discovering new designers and introducing them to my region. I’m proud to say D’NA was one of the first retailers in the world to carry the likes of Jason Wu, Prabal Gurung, Rodarte and Juan Carlos Obando. As a small-specialized retailer I can take risks on emerging talent and help nurture a following for them amongst my clients."

"When I decided to open my store, I wanted to follow in the footsteps of pioneering women retailers such as Joan Weinstein of Ultimo, Carla Sozzani of 10 Corso Como, Maria Louisa and Linda Dresner. All these women had a unique take on style, that in turn was reflected in their stores. It wasn’t simply about presenting the latest trends to customers, but offering a unique approach to dressing. That philosophy embodies the way I approach my own store today, so much so that I only wear the designers that I carry, as I firmly believe in standing behind any label I support."
