Parker Miller: My title is Parker and I’m the Mission & Operations Supervisor for TSC! I used to be born & raised in Baltimore, however have lived throughout. I’ve one older sister and my household is extraordinarily shut — I might choose hanging out with them over doing the rest.
After graduating from Tulane College in New Orleans, I moved to Nashville to work at a expertise company within the nation music business. Then moved to Los Angeles to work within the leisure business. Proper earlier than the pandemic hit, I took a job working for Michael Bosstick which finally led me to working for Lauryn at The Skinny Confidential.
It has been so cool attending to see all the totally different sides of their companies — I actually do be taught one thing new on daily basis from them. My persona sort is an ISFJ-T — I’m fiercely loyal, love serving to others, and although I like to hangout with household/mates, I have to be alone to recharge. I presently stay with my boyfriend and hopefully can persuade him to get a pug/frenchie/bulldog — I really like any canine with a squishy face.
♡ What’s a ‘day within the life’ for you?

I like to run however I additionally like MWH pilates and Chloe Ting HIIT exercises. Then I bathe & get modified — I attempt to placed on cute outfits on daily basis – it makes me really feel extra put collectively and able to tackle the day.
I’ve just lately converted from ingesting espresso to having a matcha latte. So I’ll often make that and skim from Ryan Vacation’s The Every day Stoic or atone for private emails and information earlier than leaping into work.
As Katie mentioned in her put up, no two days are the identical. I do every part from model partnerships, to researching and scheduling company for the podcast, to working with the crew on product and co-brand advertising and marketing & launch methods, and every part in between! Issues are often constantly busy. However I attempt to keep in mind to rise up and stroll round all through the day — I’m in determined want of a treadmill or strolling pad to go beneath my desk.
I’m extraordinarily type-A so all of my meals are prepped forward of time. So I can simply pull them out with out having to consider it or prepare dinner something in the course of the day. As a result of I make money working from home, I strive my greatest to place all of my work associated issues away on the finish of the day & take a while away from screens. At evening I often learn or journal and I am going to mattress SUPER early — like I’m in mattress at 8:30 or 9pm, generally even earlier.
♡ If somebody desires to work with an influencer, how do you suggest they go about it?
PM: One thing I’ve discovered from Michael & Lauryn (try their episode with Robert Greene & Ryan Vacation on mentors) is that you must method the scenario by providing one thing. You probably have an influencer you’re dying to work for, analysis and be taught as a lot as you’ll be able to about them and the business. And discover methods the place you’ll be able to add worth to their crew. Then, attain out each manner you’ll be able to — ship chilly emails — no matter it takes.

I’m additionally very a lot on the enterprise aspect of issues. So it’s actually enjoyable attending to work with creatives — I’m consistently in awe of what they give you from packaging, to graphics, to why we use this as a substitute of that when creating merchandise…each single tiny element has been appeared over and chosen fastidiously. It’s a distinct a part of your mind and I really feel like I get to develop it an increasing number of every day as I be taught from our crew.
♡ What’s your favourite life hack?
PM: WRITE EVERYTHING DOWN. I all the time have pen & paper close by and the notes part on my telephone is horrifying. I write each single factor down. I’m consistently doing 100 issues without delay (actually engaged on single-tasking but it surely’s laborious!) and I do know myself properly sufficient to know I cannot keep in mind each element, so I write each thought down. It has saved me numerous instances.
♡ Give us all of your time administration ideas!
PM: I plan forward for every part. With the ability to anticipate issues that may come up and addressing them forward of time has actually helped me get forward in my private {and professional} life. I meal prep, I attempt to plan out my errands, and many others. In order that I’m utilizing my time and vitality correctly and being as environment friendly and productive as potential.
I’ve bizarre OCD tendencies that go together with this — I’ve methods in place for cooking, cleansing, organizing, and many others., that permit me to multi-task and get probably the most accomplished within the shortest period of time….my mind works in bizarre methods! And I additionally use a calendar for every part. I even have ongoing to do lists that I’ll most likely simply maintaining including to till I die.

I grew up taking part in squash (the game) — my mother was my highschool coach and she or he would all the time present as much as our matches in like 6 inch stilettos. She is unquestionably probably the most trendy coach I’ve had.
I lived in Paris (within the seventeenth arrondissement).

♡ What’s your favourite magnificence product & why?
PM: Sunscreen! My dad is a mohs (pores and skin most cancers) surgeon and I’ve had amelanotic melanoma. So I’m VERY strict with sunscreen. I’ve tried all of them. Proper now, I really like the La Roche-Posay tinted sunscreen for my face, and Supergoop for my physique.
I’ll use something that’s out there although. I additionally love Alastin HydraTint ProMineral as a result of it feels such as you’re placing protection on. Nevertheless it’s actually mild and has SPF in it. Additionally I’m naturally oily, and these things goes on matte for me. I used to make enjoyable of my dad for carrying solar safety clothes (he wears lengthy UPF pants, lengthy sleeve UPF shirt, and an insanely massive wide-brimmed hat when he’s outdoor along with sunscreen). However now I put on it as properly.
I really like Lily Pulitzer, Coolibar, Mott50, and Solumbra. I might like to design my very own UPF clothes in the future as properly. Take this as a pleasant reminder to go get your pores and skin checked – pores and skin most cancers is the commonest most cancers of all. I’m truthful and used to go each 6 months. However after the most cancers analysis, I went each 8-10 weeks. And now being 2 years out, I’m again to going each 4-6 months.

I don’t have an intricate skincare routine — I often simply wash my face (prescription sulfur wash within the morning, Laniege Multi-Deep Clear Cleanser or Tula Cult Cleanser at evening), ice roll with THE SKINNY CONFIDENTIAL HOT MESS ICE ROLLER (ps — guys love this too!) put sunscreen on, and a few mascara (generally eyeliner too). My lashes are BLONDE so I’ve to have one thing there or I seem like Schmiegal from Lord of the Rings.
