How did Wesley Kang and Tanya Zhang find the right fit with Nimble Made?

Wesley Kang and Tanya Zhang are the co-founders of Nimble Made, an e-commerce clothing brand that makes “actually slim” dress shirts.   Before taking the leap to work full-time on their business, they worked in the corporate world in New York City.  As first generation Asian-Americans, they had achieved “success” - good jobs, good salary.  They were on their way.  However, deep down both wanted something a little more. Some of Tanya’s challenges working as a freelance graphic designer on the side convinced them they should try to think a little deeper about building a brand and a business, instead of just helping other people. As they found themselves thinking about the business all day at their full-time jobs and coming home ready to work on it, they realized they finally had to go all-in. Over the past year they have worked on the business and are starting to find some traction.  As they’ve dealt with the challenges of running a business, they have also had to constantly reflect on how to manage a relationship both as committed partners and co-founders.  Check Out Nimble Made (unsponsored):   Interested in their shirts?

Beyond Average: Co-Creating A Life & Company (Tanya Zhang & Wesley Kang, NimbleMade.com)

On this episode, I chat with Wesley, who co-founded the clothing company Nimble Made. As a finance guy with a slimmer build, trying to find better fitting dress shirts was a personal struggle. So he decided to create a solution. I pick his brain about what Asian masculinity means to him and who he would like to be a personal stylist for.Website: www.nimble-made.comFacebook: www.facebook.com/nimblemadeInstagram: @nimblemadeTranscription: https://medium.com/@chattingwithasians/3-chatting-with-wesley-kang-fashion-entrepreneur-b178809481fa
