Vlad Tiglariu

In her newly created job as a Communication Materials Group Manager of Avon Eastern Europe Larisa proved able to cope with high levels of uncertainty and stress brought by a new structure and process. She managed to align a group of highly creative (and by definition unruly as any creatives) subordinates and maintain a unified approach to the visual communication in printed materials across Eastern Europe (Russia, Ukraine, Kazakhstan, Georgia, Kyrgistan). Larisa merges very well her creative background with fine people management skills and is able to create an effective and efficient creative team. At the same time her team was always delivering in time against tight deadlines, proof to Larisa's ability to mobilize the creative energies in a useful way.

      • Feb 2017 - Present

      In 2017, following my passion for gemstones and modern minimalist design, I took a break from my full-time corporate career to create my own boutique jewellery brand. The idea was to create high quality silver jewellery showcasing the beauty of natural gemstones and well-sculptured sterling silver. In just 6 months I designed the collection, organised the production, created a website (Shopify) and successfully launched my brand online in July’17. Being my soul project Gems In Style jewellery is currently up and running providing me with an opportunity to express my vision, experiment with marketing channels and acquire hands-on digital experience.
