After serving as the Executive Director of the California Mart (now the California Market Center), she founded CFA in 1994 with assistance from major financial and manufacturing participants in the region’s apparel industry. The CFA provides industry leaders in Southern California’s manufacturing and textile community with the opportunity to share information about the industry in a global economy. In support of fashion education and emerging designers, the CFA created a philanthropic branch, the California Fashion Foundation (CFF), which bestows annual scholarships for students and young designers.
