• Mom, Sister, Wife & Daughter

    I live in Charlottesville, Virginia, with my husband, Gerry, daughter, Lucy James, and to my great fortune, my 85-year old mother. Two of my four sisters live here, too, including my eldest sister, Elizabeth, who helps me operate our sister-owned business, Cake Bloom.

  • Business Owner

    Cake Bloom was launched in my tiny apartment in San Francisco in 2012; since then, I've baked hundreds of cakes throughout Sonoma/Napa before moving to Charlottesville, Virginia, where I own and operate an award-winning retail and e-commerce bakery

  • Teacher

    I deeply believe there's a sisterhood in entrepreneurship and want, more than anything, to help you avoid the mistakes I made in the early days. After 14+ years, hundreds of weddings and countless periods of confusion and burnout, I'm here to support you with the tools, resources and know-how to build a business that fulfills you creatively and supports all areas of your life.
