What do you love most about your work?
Sukhinder
I love the mix of creativity and technology and the chance to exercise all my passions in one place. I can go from a meeting where I review our editorial and upcoming fashion picks, to giving feedback on an expert or video, to talking about how our video player and content needs to get more personalized.
