About Kayla Hoang

As a first-generation Vietnamese-American, my cultural background deeply shapes how I observe the world, interpret trends, and understand consumers. Growing up between two cultures strengthened my adaptability, broadened my aesthetic lens, and taught me the importance of storytelling through style—values that influence the way I approach trend forecasting and creative strategy today.I bring strong skills in organization, time management, initiative, and communication. I thrive in environments where creativity meets data, and I’m especially passionate about using insights to drive strategic decisions. I value collaboration and enjoy building a positive, community-driven workplace culture.With a deep interest in trend forecasting, I’m eager to contribute to the fashion or beauty industry in roles related to marketing, merchandising, consumer insights, or project management.
