OUR PURPOSE
To create handcrafted handbags and small leather goods.
WHY WE DO IT
I do it because it’s amazing seeing what I create come to life knowing it has a purpose.
MY STORY
The business began out my love for handbags as well as sewing and designing. I learned to sew from a young age and this was my chance to show my creativity – as well as my strength – to be able to launch the business from a homeless shelter.
WHY WE LOVE OUR NEIGHBORHOOD
Los Angeles is an amazing place to be a woman in business today. There are so many resources available here that are unique and can set you apart in the business world.
THE BIGGEST CHALLENGE WE FACED
Working capital.
