the Lucky Penny team

Alicia Gonzalez Owner

Jany Yang Company Manager

Alicia Gonzalez and Jany Yang were friends first before becoming business partners. They met while studying fashion marketing and management at the Savannah College of Art and Design. Alicia’s passion for owning her own business is where Lucky Penny’s concept began but with the help enlisted from Jany, the concept became reality. Their passion for finding beauty in used clothing is a gift they want to share with others. Alicia and Jany are dedicated to the Lucky Penny consignment business and are set out to receive a small business loan in order to execute their plan to its fullest potential.
