Brand Communication Specialist, Etsy Benelux
Ingrid Maria Meijer works as a Brand Communication Specialist for Etsy Benelux and is the lead for Etsy Netherlands. Born in an entrepreneurial family and educated at the best Art Academy in the Netherlands, she started her own sustainable fashion brand. Only to learn quickly fashion entrepreneurship in the ‘old fashioned’ way of selling retail was hopeless due to unbeatable competition and incredibly low margins. After working as a museum project manager and being part of the Master of Fashion Design organisation, she discovered Etsy and saw a bright silver lining for creative. Etsy is the future for creative makers around the globe.
