It’s time to meet our Brand Strategist and Consultant Jasmine Takanikos.  Jasmine works closely with Ce Ce on 80%20′s overall branding and marketing initiatives.   When we want to know about the latest trends or gadgets, she’s our girl.  Jasmine’s experience is expansive and impressive; her portfolio of work ranges from footwear to real estate brands.  We recently chatted with Jas to get the scoop on what’s new and asked her some of our Meet the Team questions.  One of the questions we asked was “What trend do you want to come back?”  Her reply was, “love” – one of our favorite responses and just another reason why we adore Jasmine.
