My parents were very influential and I am so grateful for them; both of my parents are deaf, but that never stopped them from doing what they wanted and that served as a huge lesson for me. I watched my parents navigate life with adversity and it never held them back. Their perseverance is remarkable! It showed me that if you put your mind to anything, you can succeed.” Kindler says.“When I was 11 years old I came to the United States to visit a much-beloved aunt of mine who married an American and had moved to D.C. She was the President of a department store chain called Garfinkle, and while I was visiting, she would bring me to work; this was my first experience both with the United States and the world of retail. I knew instantly that this was what I wanted to do! My mom still tells the story today about when I came back from that trip and announced that I was moving to America.
