Eva Lea Klein, a former tailor and retail sales professional living in Florida, spends much of her free time traveling around the world to visit family. Born in Brazil, she moved to the United States in 1991. Since then, she has regularly taken trips back to Brazil to visit family members. In addition, Eva Lea Klein frequently visits New York and Austin, Texas, to spend time with other family members, including her children and grandchildren.

Ms. Klein began her career as a salesperson at a department store in Brazil. Over the course of 18 years, she held various managerial roles at the store and assisted with the store’s daily operations. In the last few years before her move to the US, Ms. Klein balanced her retail position with academic study on architecture.

Following her move to Florida, Ms. Klein worked for eight years as a tailor at the Banana Republic in Boca Raton, where she was responsible for tasks such as altering garments and reinforcing clothing. Since Ms. Klein speaks Spanish and Portuguese, she also interacted with customers who spoke those languages.
