Our next guest, Samina Virk, is the US CEO of Vestiaire Collective and leads one of the largest luxury resale companies in the world—the first to be a B Corp. Her resume spans over two decades in fashion and tech, with stints at Target and eBay, before she helped launch the Paris-based Vestiaire Collective in the States in 2014. Samina left Vestiaire in 2017 only to return a few years later in her current CEO role where she’s passionate about confronting the environmental effects of ultra-fast fashion and the beauty of clothing that lives a second life. After all, the luxury resale market is expected to be valued at over $60 billion by 2029, and Samina is at the forefront.  We’ll get into her inspiring, unique path to CEO, including:the expectations of growing up as a first-generation Pakistani-American woman.why there are actually no right or wrong choices.attending business school.
