When Jodi isn’t in the classroom teaching Toronto teens about Visual Arts and Social Sciences or in meetings as the President of her Condo Board, she’s globe trotting, shopping or playing with the hottest technology. Her degrees in Fine Arts from York University and Education from the University of Toronto (as well as a teaching qualifications from New York State) have provided her the keen eye to appreciate fashion as an art form, and to teach others to be creative. It’s her own creativity that sparked the initial vision for Fashion Forward, a website designed to list FREE fashion and accessory classifieds for shoppers who love to save, and sellers who love to earn! It is available all across Canada and currently in select U.S. locations. Fashion Forward promotes fashion sustainability and is part of the growing movement of social shopping. Buyers and sellers meet in their local area to exchange cash for goods. (www.fashion-forward.ca)
