I spoke with Sofia Haq, founder of Muslim Women Professionals, a marketing consultant and Co-Director of Riordan Affairs at Riordan Programs Alumni Association about her experiences and some of the latest research on diversity and innovation. She only recently made the transition from healthcare to fashion and already has Austere Attire and Diane Von Furstenberg on her resume. Sofia, a UCLA alumna, and I spoke about female competition, the 1%, ethical consumerism, and more in this first part of a weekly three-part series.
