Intro to the NYC eCommerce (Fashion) Brands Community
An insight into the world of eCommerce with the founders of three fashion brands with sustainability as the focus.
Jessica Hendricks
Founder, The Brave Collection
New York City
Exposed to design and travel from a young age, Jessica Hendricks was born in Paris and grew up outside Manhattan with eyes glued to the cases in her mother’s jewelry shop. Fascinated by indigenous cultures and spirituality, Hendricks traveled to Cambodia to teach English. She was mesmerized by the tangled synthesis of both the beautiful and heartbreakingly violent past of this small Buddhist country in the wake of genocide, and the reality of human trafficking.
Combining her love of jewelry and philanthropic spirit, Jessica was inspired to create a collection to celebrate this unique community, and connect courageous women across the globe. Hendricks and The Brave Collection have been featured by Vogue, Glamour, MSNBC and invited to the White House as one of 60 young entrepreneurs to witness President Obama’s speech encouraging support of Emerging Global Entrepreneurs.
