Elli Stephanede, a distinguished Stern MBA graduate, currently serves as the Founder of Left Knee Patch, an innovative eCommerce platform dedicated to promoting environmental sustainability through the sale of upcycled and preloved children's clothing. With a passion for both fashion and eco-consciousness, Elli has positioned Left Knee Patch at the forefront of a growing movement that seeks to make sustainable choices not only accessible but also appealing to modern parents. Under her leadership, the company offers a unique subscription model that allows parents to receive clothing in the next size up, alongside a la carte purchasing options, ensuring that sustainability seamlessly fits into their busy lifestyles.
Elli's expertise in product development and business strategy is evident in her approach to optimizing the Shopify store, where she employs advanced merchandising techniques, tagging, and upselling/cross-selling strategies. This not only enhances the customer experience but also minimizes time and financial investment for families seeking quality clothing options. Her previous experience at Nosto, where she empowered eCommerce businesses through personalization and user-generated content, has equipped her with the skills necessary to drive revenue growth and operational improvements at Left Knee Patch.
In addition to her hands-on management of supply chain processes and sourcing sustainable textiles, Elli excels in project management and strategic planning, ensuring that every aspect of the business aligns with its core mission of environmental responsibility. Her commitment to fostering partnerships and leveraging data-driven analysis positions Left Knee Patch as a leader in the sustainable fashion space, making a meaningful impact on both the industry and the planet.
