Saks Chief Marketing Officer Emily Essner shared, “At Saks, we’re committed to offering inspiring, unforgettable experiences while using our platform to support important causes, and we’re proud to see the outsized impact this event has contributed to protecting the health and beauty of the Lake Tahoe Basin.” WWD reported on the event and its history. #Luxury #Ecommerce #LeaguetoSaveLakeTahoe #Saks

Ahead of the completion of our Saks Early Career Development Program, I recently joined this year’s participants for a discussion on professional growth and development.

I’m increasingly inspired by their motivation, curiosity and enthusiasm and look forward to watching this group flourish at Saks. Congratulations to this talented group!  #SaksOrNowhere
