After graduating from Northwestern University Vicki spent 12 years in marketing and business development roles in corporate America.  After earning her MBA at the Kellogg Graduate School of Management at Northwestern University, she founded the jewelry line Sway Jewelry in 2001.  Since 2014 she has had director/buying roles at 2 high-end retailers and also worked in Admissions and special projects at Kellogg Graduate School of Management.

Talk about the long and winding road - but what a ride!  

Vicki lives in Chicago's North Shore with her husband (and college sweetheart) Keith.  When not designing jewelry, mining fashion sites, hunting for an elusive pair of shoes in her size, or styling & personal shopping, she enjoys pilates, walks in the Botanic Gardens, art, travel and visiting her kids - one West Coast, one East Coast.
