Lindsay People's Wagner (Kinfolk)

Lindsay Peoples Wagner is 29 and just recently left her role as EIC at Teen Vogue for the same job at The Cut (her replacement at Teen Vogue is 27... talk about making the rest of us feel inadequate!). I loved this interview with her, in which she talks about youth, being Black in the fashion industry, working your way up, and ultimately being true to yourself.
