Hi, I’m Emilia, and I want to welcome you to my Lifestyle Blog which has recently been voted Top 5 Lifestyle Blog in Melbourne by Culture Trip. I started this blog in 2011 as my special place online where I share my experiences and journey of making a living doing the things I love including working for myself as a digital consultant, writing for this blog, designing jewellery, investing in property and managing my online wedding marketplace site Capriess.
Working as a digital consultant, I work closely with a small portfolio of wonderful businesses. I love assisting my lovely clients to understand complex data and trends and turn the information into something that is easy to digest. I have a passion for transforming this valuable information into insights that help drive strategies for my clients across their multi online channels, which in turn help them to attract happier customers, portray a better brand online and of course try to entice more customers to use (and love) my client’s product or service.
I also love beautiful and dainty objects (thanks to my degree in Industrial Design) so to satisfy my design and creative side, I create unique geo-shaped fashion jewellery which is sold and distributed in over 30 stores across Australia and overseas.
When I’m not working on digital projects for my clients (or making jewellery), I work on my other online business, Capriess, a wedding marketplace empowering couples to buy and sell pre-loved wedding items. My goal for Capriess is to transform it into Australia’s number one trusted wedding marketplace, and to do this I’ve enlisted some help and am currently doing the Launch program by The Entourage to teach me what I need to know to achieve this goal.
My background – Just a little bit more about who I am.
Born overseas, I graduated in Industrial Design at the University of Canberra and landed a job as Exhibition Designer at the National Gallery of Australia. I resigned shortly after to pursue a dream of being my own boss and opened a high-end boutique importing luxury leather footwear and handbags. Managing and running this new business was an incredible experience – something I’ll never forget. It triggered my passion for marketing, business and inspired me to study further and refine my skills to be able to live the life I want, which is what I am doing today!
Featured Interviews – Here are some places where I’ve had the opportunity about all the things I do to have a more enriched life.
