Before rummaging through closets and helping people develop "the rules" for a fun and easy-to-manage wardrobe, Mayna Sgaramella worked with teams as a business consultant helping people develop the most important thing they can invest in: themselves!  As a Core Instructor since 2001, she helped students from her alma mater, Columbia College Chicago, and companies throughout the country to discover their own passions, learn to work efficiently, and achieve great results.
During this time, she also discovered her own passion for fashion consulting, and took what was just helping out friends and family to the next level and started her wardrobe consulting business, Closet Fly, LLC in 2005.

Since then, Mayna has been a guest speaker at local business meetings where she presents advice on appropriate business attire to help companies achieve their goals.  She also volunteers for Dress For Success at the YWCA in Seattle, dressing women in need from head to toe in donated professional business wear to help them advance their careers.  Her experience with customer service in both the fashion retail industry and consulting proves that she really listens to her clients and always makes them feel comfortable in an otherwise vulnerable situation.

Mayna believes in investing in herself and her relationships. Through her services at Closet Fly, she will share with you valuable fashion advice that many have applied at home and at work.   She communicates that "everyday we are sending a message to the world through our appearance, so it is important for us to evaluate whether or not our message is aligned with our intentions.  Maintaining a wardrobe that enhances the way you present yourself to the world can help you look your best, and more importantly, you'll feel amazing."

"Some people don’t even know where to start," says Mayna. "I'll start in their closet.  But most people find out, after I've completed a full inventory and coordinated their wardrobe, that they need to give their image a little more time and attention.  They learn to revisit their wardrobe frequently to make sure they are updated and their image is aligned with their intention."

At Closet Fly, Mayna gets into your closet, goes behind the scenes of your wardrobe and, through shopping, consulting, and frequent follow ups, helps you develop and maintain your own personal style.
