How did this all come to be?

It was 2017. My big sister Jess, the owner and crochet extraordinaire of Make & Do Crew, needed some help. She was raising my two adorable nieces (who now have a baby brother!), in the throes of being a full-time business owner and work-from-home mom, and wearing callouses on her fingers from whipping out so many crochet projects and patterns for her crew.

Something else you should know about Jess - she is a full-on Type B, right-brained creative. I mean that in the nicest way. She puts out some amazing stuff on her blog!

I, on the other hand, am Type A all the way. I like routine and order, and I despise clutter. In fact, my idea of a good time is color-coding all of my to-dos in my Plum Paper planner with a big iced coffee.

One day, Jess realized she was desperate for some chaos control. Here is where I came in, with my highlighters and sticky notes a-blazin’. She handed over her Pinterest account and let me go to town on learning, reconfiguring and strategizing about every aspect that we could.

Since then, I’ve enjoyed bringing calm to other creatives’ tornados by establishing systems and structures for their Pinterest accounts. I love knowing that I am alleviating a sense of stress from you, and at the same time, helping you better serve your customers and build the brand you’ve always dreamed of.

While working with my superstar sister, I also learned just how DANG hard it is to run your own business, support your family in every way they need, try to take care of yourself and still feel inspired daily to just.keep.going.

You guys do a lot. Every day. If Pinterest Management is the one piece of your crazy, chaotic jigsaw puzzle life that I can bring calm to, I am here for it.
