About the Speakers
Evelyn Nguyen
Co-Founder & CEO,
Mirror That Look
Evelyn Nguyen is the Co-Founder & CEO at Mirror That Look. Mirror That Look is born out of Evelyn's frustration of not being able to easily find & compare similarly looking fashion items across different brands & retailers. Why can we easily compare prices of hotels, flights, electronics, & almost everything else except clothing? Before launching Mirror That Look, Evelyn worked as a management consultant at BNP Paribas. Evelyn previously attained her Bachelor degree from MIT with focus in Finance & Computer Science. When Evelyn is not working on Mirror That Look, you can find her out & about, making the most out of her time in New York City by trying out as many different new / weird types of food as possible.
