Biography

Donna Bender’s career in Marketing and Advertising began in the Fashion Industry with licensing’s best known pioneer, Calvin Klein himself. After working at Calvin Klein as Vice President for 9 years, Donna then devoted her talent and experience to other respected brands including Salvatore Ferragamo, Laura Ashley, Eddie Bauer, New Balance, and Major League Baseball.

After her daughter was born 16 years ago, Donna’s focus remained in the children’s apparel industry where she has consulted with numerous companies to increase their brand recognition, sales and market share. She has been the creative developer of new products, licensing programs, merchandising and marketing management. Donna’s market accomplishments include luxury goods and giftware, apparel and travel accessories, children, tween and teen products and a range of products that covers toys, children’s books, entertainment, beauty and wellness.

Last summer, Donna and her family relocated from New York City to Dallas, TX.
Donna is thrilled to now call Dallas her new home, and enjoys her career as she consults with new clients to help them grow their business: by building brand awareness and creating a public image, promoting and recognizing the value of teamwork, and showing appreciation and gratitude to develop successful business relationships.
