I am the Senior Merchandising Manager, which basically encompasses everything I love! Every day is different—I could be setting a tradeshow booth, merchandising in our flagship store, working on a photoshoot set, building an assortment plan for an account, or designing new fixtures. I travel somewhere new every month, and get to work with an amazing team of people. I am so thankful!

How did you discover Natural Life?

A good friend of mine introduced me to Patti years ago when I was visiting Jacksonville. We spent a few hours together, and she told me all about the brand. I totally fell in love! But at the time I lived in Philadelphia, so we went our separate ways. Almost 5 years later we got back in touch, and the timing was right for me to join the NL family!!

What Natural Life saying means the most to you?

“Kind people are my kinda people.” If I can teach my children one thing in life, I hope it will be kindness.

What “little things” in life make you happiest?

My daughter’s imagination, my son’s raspy belly-laugh, my husband’s on-point humor. My roll-on oil from Valchemy Lab, avocados, dark chocolate, red wine. And any special gift from a friend, or piece I bring home from traveling. Most recently, I found a clay incense-holder shaped like a hand in New York--I have been burning rose incense non-stop!!

What’s your favorite Natural Life giveback?

I love our involvement with Rethreaded, the organization that employs women previously affected by the sex-trade. I feel their mission is both beautiful and powerful.

What’s your most memorable Natural Life Story you’ve experienced while working here?

Oh boy, that’s hard! We have such a fun office life. But for one of my favorite people’s birthdays, we secretly got ahold of her wig collection and surprised her with a wig party! Nothing better than an office full of people wearing tinsel and brightly colored wigs!!
