Meet   Amira

Hi, I'm Amira!—the founder of AEG Collective, entrepreneur, wife, and proud mother of two.

​

Family has always been at the center of everything I do. Alongside my husband, I'm building a collection of businesses rooted in creativity, craftsmanship, hospitality, and entrepreneurship, all with the goal of creating a meaningful legacy for our family and future generations.

​

Born in Albuquerque, NM, raised in Northern California, and professionally shaped by New York City, I earned my Bachelor's degree in Fashion Design & Merchandising from California State University, Sacramento before following a lifelong dream and moving to New York. Over the past eight years, I've developed my expertise across luxury resale, fine jewelry, fashion, merchandising, authentication, inventory management, pricing strategy, copywriting, and client service.

​

Throughout my career, I've had the privilege of working with respected luxury consignment, resale, and fine jewelry companies, gaining hands-on experience with designer handbags, luxury accessories, fine jewelry, and high-value collections. From identifying gemstones and precious metals to evaluating six-figure jewelry pieces and conducting extensive authenticity research, I've developed a deep appreciation for the craftsmanship, history, and lasting value behind exceptional luxury goods.

​

But fashion and luxury have always been more than a profession for me—they are a creative language. My experience has expanded beyond the sales floor into styling, visual merchandising, creative production, editorial and campaign work, event design, and client experiences. I've worked backstage at New York Fashion Week, assisted with styling and wardrobe, supported editorial and campaign productions, created luxury client lookbooks, and helped bring visual concepts to life from behind the scenes.

​

Entrepreneurship has always been my passion as well. I am also the founder of ERA Candle Co., a luxury home and personal fragrance brand inspired by history, travel, and timeless storytelling. Through every business I've built, I've remained drawn to the same things: beautiful objects, thoughtful experiences, creative problem-solving, and the stories that give them meaning.

​

I founded AEG Collective to bring all of these worlds together—a place where luxury expertise and creative expression could exist side by side. Through AEG's Creative Services, I work with individuals, brands, and creative professionals on styling, visual curation, creative direction, event aesthetics, merchandising, sourcing, and creative production. Through our Concierge Services, I provide personalized guidance in wardrobe, luxury sourcing, collections, and the discovery of exceptional pieces.

​

At the heart of both is the same philosophy: luxury should feel personal. It should be thoughtful, intentional, and rooted in trust. Whether I'm helping someone create a wardrobe, develop a visual concept, source an extraordinary piece, or bring an event to life, my goal is always to make the experience feel as exceptional as the result.

​

When I'm not working with clients, you'll usually find me spending time with my family, enjoying a great cup of coffee, or dreaming up the next chapter of our family's growing collection of brands.

​

Thank you for being here. I'm so glad you're part of the journey.
