Emily Hikade Crafting Better Comfort After a CIA Career
Petite Plume is a retail company launched by its CEO and founder Emily Hikade from the very beginning. She wanted to help people. Thus, she grew up in Central Wisconsin, eagerly developing her curiosity during her early years. She bicycled to the library in order to teach herself French language and convinced her parents to allow her to attend a summer foreign exchange program in South of France in her thirteen years. There, she was able to attain fluency in the language before she could head home.
Hikade graduated from the University of Notre Dame with double major in French and German and international relations. After this, she got a White House job. There, she successfully took and got hired at the State Department’s Operations Center, where she was able to build her skills in urgent message sending and receiving with politicians in other countries.
Hikade subsequently transferred to the CIA, where he concentrated on counterterrorism for more than 10 years. A near death experience made her change her course while she was working at the agency. Such contemplation made her to create Petite Plume, luxury sleepwear and home company. Today, Hikade turned feelings and emotions that she has been through and love towards such things into continuing to produce items that can give people comfort.
