Author Bio

BIO Digital media veteran and award winning designer, Nova Lorraine, founded Raine Magazine in 2007. Nova felt compelled to launch Raine after noticing the necessity for many young brands and entrepreneurs in the creative industries to have a media platform committed to their success. The lack of promotion, access to other successful entrepreneurs, funding and basic business acumen were the main drivers behind launching the world's most creative ENTREPRENEURSHIP magazine. As the Editor in Chief of Raine, Nova has had the pleasure of interviewing some of the world's most successful creative entrepreneurs including: Marc Cuban, Daymond John, Kendall Jenner, and Priyanka Chopra to name a few. Before she established Raine, Nova has received many accolades including Haute Couture Designer of the Year and Rising Star Nominations by Fashion Group International. In addition to this esteemed notoriety, her designs have graced the big screen, made television appearances on The View and Oprah, and have been modeled in world-renown fashion publications including Italian Vogue and Essence Magazines. Her early career internships with Michael Kors and Angel Sanchez were the catalysts for shaping Nova's love of branding and visual story telling. With a Masters in Clinical Psychology and a degree from NYC's Fashion Institute of Technology, Nova advises many creative brands and executives as well as enjoys speaking at conferences and universities worldwide.
