My experience working as a social media manager and model for La Vouga was unforgettable and incredible. I had such an amazing time getting to know the local brand designers and being able to model for such amazing and talented people. My favorite part about working for La Vouga was going to the pop-up gallery shoots and events. My boss, Aanshi, had such a positive influence on my experience and inspired me to apply for modeling my school's magazine, Align. I am so grateful to have been able to work for such an amazing company that had values similar to mine such as the fact that all their products are ethically and sustainably produced. I would not change anything about my experience except for I wish it were longer and I want to go back! A day in my life working for La Vouga was primarily remote, but I would post grid posts for the company on Instagram three to five times a week and usually a story post every day. In addition, I would make reels that compiled brand shoots or events related to La Vouga and partnerships. My favorite shoot was the Olend brand shoot, it was so exciting getting to shoot on the streets of Barcelona and try on all the amazing Olend pieces and jewelry.
