About Amena Lee Schlaikjer 

Amena went full circle after living in Shanghai as a baby having moved to different cities in Asia and Europe every 2-3 years since birth. She decided to combine her studies in Asian Economics and Fashion Merchandising from Columbia and F.I.T to work on marketing and operations projects for small boutiques and worked on the launches of Vogue, M.A.C and Zagat Survey in Shanghai before helping to open ?Whatif! 's first China office as a Project Driver.

She loves people's faces (licensed in professional makeup), eating bizarre things from around the world, being inspired by people's choices in life, dance, song and has been known as a "hustler" on occasion.
