Before becoming an out-and-out businesswoman, Aizenstros also used to work as a cashier at Zellers.
She always wanted to be a singer. In her high school years, Janét was voted the most famous. Everyone thought she’d be popular for singing, but entrepreneurship happened to her. She’s happy to have traversed this route rather than the path of fame.
