Dom's pure sovereignty and transparency shines through in all she does. Fun fact, she is the designer of the first ever Plant Festival in Las Vegas, @lvplantfest! If she isn't hanging out with her French Bulldog, @chocothefrench, you might see her dancing around DTLV to some Tame Impala tunes or cultivating perspective shifting decks/ideas.
