Stella Simona on What Being South Asian Means to Her

"Just because we are all South Asian doesn't mean we are going to be passionate about the same career paths. There's, unfortunately, a lot of pressure for many of us to follow a path that is more 'secure' or 'sophisticated' from our communities and families. At the end of the day, we all need to do what is right for us. Representation matters. Being a South Asian in the fashion and beauty space allows me to pave the path for those after me. It allows consumers to finally see products and campaigns that speak to them and their features."
