Founding Story

Hey there, I’m Vivian! 👋

My first job out of college was a job every girl wanted. I worked at L’Oréal, working on brands like Lancôme, Kiehl’s, and Garnier. I launched new products to the market and my bathroom cabinet looked like Sephora.

But I grew antsy at the traditional 9-to-5 and left to do something by myself. Like many first-time entrepreneurs, my first business failed. So I picked up independent consulting by chance and in a matter of months, I scored an incredible list of clients from category-creating startups to leading Fortune 500 companies.

The aha moment came when one year into going independent, I was offered a job that was 5 levels above where I was a year ago. I realized that I had accidentally stumbled upon a way to leapfrog my career.

That’s why I founded Rise, to help other women take charge of their careers to go further, faster, on our own terms.

If I can do it, so can you. 🦄💪
