I grew up in Upper Darby, Pennsylvania, where I’d ride my bike to the local library — drawn not just to books, but to the quiet, the mystery, the feeling of stepping into a different kind of time. That was my first taste of immersive space. A space where story, scent, and stillness met.

I spent years working in the restaurant industry, eventually earning my degree from Walnut Hill College (The Restaurant School). Hospitality became second nature - how to season a moment with intention, how to make someone feel welcome, how to layer a moment with care.

After living in Philadelphia for many years, I moved to North Coventry, Pottstown over a decade ago, it felt like the kind of place where roots could deepen. I was always drawn to Pottstown borough, it feels like home - and I would be honored to be one of the shops you can one day visit.

Now I live here with my husband, our two amazing growing children, and our elderly dachschund dog. I garden. I create small nooks around our home - corners of calm, of beauty, of just-right-light. My mother taught me how to work with what we had, to make things lovely with our hands, to find magic in the making. That has never left me.
