Sharon Bui

Sharon Bui served as the CEO and Marketing Director of Frill LLC from 2012 to 2016. The inspiration for Frill emerged from Sharon being forced by her sorority to buy expensive and unflattering clothing for sorority recruitment. Sharon and her business partner were challenged to fix this problem! Now, Frill dresses sororities and bridesmaids all across the world. In 2013, one of Frill's pictures became viral on social media.

Bui is a proud graduate of the College of Textiles at NC State University with a degree in Fashion and Textile Management: Brand Management and Marketing. As a junior at NC State, she formed Frill with an Appalachian State student with only $250 (and Sharon had only $350 in her bank account!). They grew it into a six figure company as college students before year two and defied all of the business odds.

Bui's company, Frill, aired on Shark Tank Season 6 in March of 2015. She also was on the spin off show of Shark Tank, Beyond the Tank, April 2016. She is proud to have represented Raleigh, N.C. State, the College of Textiles, Chi Omega and her family. As seen on Shark Tank, Forbes, ABC World News Tonight, Huffington Post, Entertainment Weekly and more.

In 2016 they sold their company. Bui now mentors other start-up companies, builds e-commerce websites and is a traveling public speaker. Bui currently works at Lenovo as a Software Product Manager.
