Michelle Rico

Founder, The Miventi Collection

Michelle Rico is the founder of an up and coming Los Angeles based fashion accessory line called The Miventi Collection. Her motto "fashion with function" is embedded in each of her designs as she expands her line to include functional and unique handbags and purses. A concept derived from her original invention called "Miventi Wristlets".

Inspired by her mother, who at the age of 16 started her first thriving business, Michelle aspired to someday start a business of her own. She credits her mom as her inspiration to become a strong and resilient woman entrepreneur and for being her own personal fashion icon.

Her quest to create quality products that provides simple solutions to hidden and often ignored nuisances is what keeps her motivated in creating new and unique designs.

She hopes that sharing her journey as a starting entrepreneur will inspire someone else to pursue their own dreams or at the very least shed a perspective insight of the trials, tribulations, and rewards of starting a business.
