Born in Montreal, Canada and a soon to be LaSalle College graduate in Fashion Marketing. I have a bachelor in journalism from Concordia University and have been employed by this magazine for 2 years. Nonchalantly going through life with a unique belief that translates as my lifestyle. #My way of life! I am a strong believer in F Scott Fitzgerald way of thought and way of conduct. He is my role model on all decisions of my life. Faced with dilemmas or situations that require personal adequacies, I chose to become Scott’s brain, which governs all my intentions in regard to life. Depending on the days, I fluctuate from novel to novel or character to character. On days where I am feeling either special or extremely different from other people, I conclude to reside as “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button”. On days where I want to be extravagant, flamboyant and put up a fictitious lavish lifestyle, I have a “Great Gatsby” mind set. It’s really all in the way you feel and choose to play it out. Like Fitzgerald, I have always had hope in my work and in future plans to bring me platter of success and abundant wealth. Still a work in progress, I passionately acclaim my personal route, reserved for adventure and self-discovery. Hello, my name is Felicia Polyzos. I am a 22 year old fashion blogger, stylist, music producer, and photographer. I have had a passion for art, music and fashion all my life. My interest for these became a career when I decided it was time to live my dreams. This is my second year now at MTLife magazine, amongst my other jobs on the side. I was born and raised in Montreal and am embarrassed in the culture. I moved to New York for a couple of years to study, as well as spend a summer living in Paris.

I studied Fashion Marketing and graduated from Istituto Marangoni in Milan, Italy. I am a passionate writer who has written articles for several magazines, including Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar and Elle. I love reading, travelling, fashion and photography. I am very interested in Mythology studies as well as the arts. My favorite pass time is going to visit art and history museums as well as trying new unique restaurants. My style consists of trendy street wear mixed in with a vintage rock and roll flare. I started working at MTLife around a year ago and I’m loving it here Hi, I’m Amanda and I’ve been working for MTLife for 1 year now. I am 24 years old and was born and raised here in the beautiful city of Montreal. Like any other Montrealer, I love eating poutine (multiple times a week), drinking with friends, fashion and photography. After graduating from LaSalle College in Fashion Marketing, I decided to take some time off school and explore the world. With my best friend by my side and giant bag on my back, I left my hometown, and set off on my journey around the world. I started off down below in Australia, and then slowly made my way through China, Japan and then India all in 6 months. After that, I decided to go to Los Angeles where I scored a job at Glamour magazine as a fashion journalist. I worked at Glamour for 2 years before deciding to come back to Montreal to work for MTLife. Here at MTLife, I’m a journalist and absolutely love it! MTLife is all about embracing life and culture and celebrating being a Montrealer. Enjoy!
