This 23-Year-Old Woman Is Making Waves With Her Swimsuit Company

She's 23, sometimes has purple hair, and is on a mission to put women in swimsuits they feel comfortable and confident in. Kortni Jeane Niccoli is the designer and entrepreneur behind Kortni Jeane swimsuits, and her vibrant, mix-and-match suits for men, women, and kids are so popular, she can't keep them in stock.

Kortni, who hails from Provo, UT, spoke with me about the inspiration behind her company, the struggles of being a one-woman show, and how she's used Instagram to heat up business. She said:

"No matter when was the last time you put a swimsuit on, I wanted to create a swimmer that every person, no matter their body type, feels comfortable and confident in! Established in 2014, I launched Kortni Jeane in hopes of bringing you swimmers that represent your personality without having to pay for a custom suit."
