Chrissie Lam

Senior Concept Designer at American Eagle; Founder of the Supply Change

Chrissie's travels to nearly 60 countries has given her not only a unique perspective on fashion culture but also has brought her closer to people from all around the world. It was during her travels primarily as a Senior Concept Designer for American Eagle that she forged a deep appreciation and involvement in artisan cooperatives around the world. This led her to launch Create for a Cause in June 2008, a non-profit organization that connects creatives with causes in philanthropic collaborations that utilize their skills & talents for a cause. In November of 2010, she then founded The Supply Change, which helps connect global fashion brands with social enterprises to bring socially conscious fashion to the mainstream consumer.
