Lisa Sun

Lisa Sun grew up in California, the daughter of Taiwanese immigrant parents. She overachieved at a young age, graduating from high school two years early and funding her Yale education with six part-time jobs, scholarships, and financial aid. After 11 years as a McKinsey & Company consultant, she took a solo trip around the world and started her own clothing line, Gravitas, that promotes body positivity and self-confidence. Launched in 2013, the company was featured in O Magazine, People, and the TODAY Show all within weeks of the company’s founding. The business has taken off since, having been featured on CNN and in Forbes, Fast Company, New York Magazine, Elle, Marie Claire, InStyle, and more--and with a deep commitment to AAPI causes and NYC's Garment District. Often called the “dress whisperer,” Lisa is a highly sought-after public speaker who likes to impart her hard-won knowledge on gravitas and how to best harness it to other women.
