She brings almost two decades of experience across the many formats of retail, from ecommerce, to specialty, to department store, where she held progressive roles in both buying and private brand leadership.

Inspired to make DC her home, Luci attended The George Washington University where she earned a Bachelor of Business Administration. Shortly after, she attended the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising (FIDM) in Los Angeles where she earned a professional credential in Merchandise Product Development that launched her career in corporate retail.
