Meet Emily – Founder of Boutique Training Academy

Hi, I’m Emily — founder of Boutique Training Academy and a passionate advocate for retail success with soul. I help boutique and retail owners build more profitable businesses using strategic inventory planning and data‑driven buying strategies.

With over two decades of experience and a no‑fluff approach, I teach what actually works — whether you’re just starting out or scaling. As one student put it: “She gives you the meat and potatoes of what you need to make your business successful.”

Most of my clients come in with big dreams but little to no formal retail training — and that’s exactly where we fill the gap. Through professional‑level, mindset‑forward education, I guide creative entrepreneurs to thrive in the ever‑changing retail world. There’s no bad time to start a good business — and you deserve to do it with confidence, clarity, and fun.

Here's to making lots of friends and making lots of money!
