What was your day job when you started Ring Concierge?
When I first got the idea to start Ring Concierge, I worked as an associate buyer for Bloomingdales; prior to that, I was a product developer for Macy's. Throughout my time there, I was exposed to many different facets of the business, including the ins and outs of product development, as well as analyzing trends and consumer behaviors and how to leverage all three to forge a successful business.
