I was born in East Texas and raised in Dallas, spent eight years in New York, and now call the Bishop Arts neighborhood home with my husband and our two long-haired mini dachshunds, Finnegan and Murphy.

Before starting Mimi’s, I built my career in magazines, PR, and events — working at brands like D Magazine, Glamour Magazine, Daniel Wellington, Bespoke Post, and more. That experience gave me a love for creativity, storytelling, and the importance of building community.

I’m a proud University of Oklahoma grad and am currently pursuing my MBA at SMU. Along the way, I fell in love with needlepointing as a way to slow down and create something—and even more, I fell in love with the people I met through it. Mimi’s was born out of that passion: a modern, welcoming space for all stitchers to come together, share in the craft, and feel part of a creative community.
