What inspired you to start your own business?

My father is an immigrant from Italy. He came to this country with nothing and opened his first restaurant in 1982. Through hard work and sacrifice he has been able to live the “American Dream”. Having grown up in a family-owned business, I have always had an entrepreneurial spirit and a desire to create something of my own. That led me to starting Confused Girl, which offers yoga pants based on healing crystals.

What are you most proud of?

I was incredibly proud to be one of the first female influencers to work with Audi in Germany. It is a male-dominated industry and it was an honor to break through that. I was also incredibly proud when my leggings were featured on the cover of LA Yoga. I saw that magazine for months all over LA and it made me so happy.

What are you most looking forward to?

This present moment. Spending time with my family during this coronavirus situation. I’m excited to take some time to chill and be with my family
