## Intent
Our aim is to create an ideal customer personas that not only aligns with our brand identity but also has the flexibility to adapt to different social media environments. 
This avatar will play a crucial role in guiding our overall marketing strategies, including content creation, partnerships, and targeted advertising across platforms.
An audience persona (a.k.a. a buyer persona, customer persona, or marketing persona) is a profile that represents your ideal audience. 
While the target audience describes the audience in a broad sense, an audience persona hones in on a specific person within the target audience.
When defining the audience persona, hone in on a specific person representing the ideal audience member; their demographics, behaviors, goals, challenges, interests, and more. 
An audience persona should be singular. We're thinking of one distinct person, what they think, and how they feel.
## Instructions
1. Based on our brand identity, on the ideal customer avatar, and the different possible niches we are targeting, please develop a dream customer persona profile.

*  **Job Title**: Boutique Merchandizer

* **Education**: Fine Arts Degree
* **Marital/Family Status**: single, Frenchie Bulldog: Travis

* **Brands They Love**: She is a sucker for vintage designer goods, mix in some unique boutique tops and accessories. Loves Madewell for denim and basics.
* **Pain Points/Problems**: Since Leona works in the fashion industry, she feels tired of predicable (supposed to's) when it comes to dressing. She wants to wear clothes that make her feel something more.
* **Motivators/Aspirations**: Enjoys starting conversations with strangers and outwardly dresses in a way that sparks joy and creativity. Loves to travel and experience the world.
* **Needs**: (empty, not filled yet, but please provide challenges)
* **Personality**: free-spirit, old soul, loves to laugh, sarcastic, obsessed with True Crime podcasts and readings. 
* **Story**: Leona is one of those people that feel like an instantaneous best friend! She has one of those personalities that you can't help but love. She is a giving friend and a good listener. 
Even though she has an eclectic and loud personal style, her small apartment forces her to be minimalistic in the things she owns. 
She is very choosy about what clutter she lets into her life, so she is drawn to the simplistic chaos that a Ginger piece has to offer. She feels like she can express herself effectively and wear her Ginger pieces on repeat since the unique nature makes her confident she will be the only one sporting her style.
