WHO IS SHE?
“My name is Jenny Hsieh, the founder and CEO of X NIHILO. I am a passionate businesswoman, a designer, mother to my staff, gym junkie and your bag lady.”
HOW SHE STARTED
“The name X NIHILO basically summarises how I started the business. X NIHILO is short for ex nihilo, a Latin phrase that means “creation out of nothing”. I was driving home after finishing the last day of my previous full-time job and I had an epiphany moment and decided to follow my heart to pursue my long-term dream. I started working on X NIHILO the very next day!”
WHY SHE IS DOING IT
“I do what I do because I wanted to create a culture that evokes my idea of strength, beauty, and independence to inspire women through my designs. I aspire to be the voice for women with a strong identity and come from a generation with the desire to express individuality.”
WHAT’S HER FINAL MESSAGE
“Follow your passion and success will follow.
Working for Jenny doesn’t feel like work at all. At X NIHILO we are one big family working towards one big goal – to grow X NIHILO into a thriving business. Jenny is truly an inspirational #bosslady – her work ethic is second to none and we all consider her to be not only a boss but also a mentor and friend.
