our dearest amanda finn, the voice behind the beacon's website (and this month's home page model), will be leaving us to pursue a quieter life with her husband, in more peaceful environs. we will miss her astute insights, and her creative lens. amanda has always captured organic nuances of fashion, and honed in on the people both at beacon's, and in broader nyc culture, that have embodied a certain, born that way, look. what we will miss the most about amanda, however, is her kind heart, her hopeful disposition, and her enthusiasm about her job, co-workers, and friends. thank you amanda, for sharing your vision with us, and for your years of dedication.
