We want to switch things up a little bit for our blog section over here at Moxie so we’ve collaborated with a few ladies for our series of “9 questions with“. Think of this as a fun “get to know me” series with influencers and creators from industries such as fashion, fitness, business, arts and wellness.
First up—Aimee Middendorp. Aimee is a talented singer and also works at the Aruba Tourism Authority in P.R & Communications. We’re highlighting Aimee in the industries of arts and business–which in her case is music.
