About

You know those silly little quirks that tend to grace About pages?

At first I worried that I didn’t know enough of Eileen’s peculiar (read: weirdo) qualities to spill the beans here. Stuff like “Eileen met her husband at a hostel in Florence. She loves blahblahbl…”

(Okay, actually I do know the Florence Hostel Romance bit.)

But I in-my-bones know that there’s no one I’d rather distill stuff with. Because when I absolutely must have the right answer, I go to Eileen. And she helps me find my own supremely perfect solution.

She’s just one of those kind, funny, insightful people whose opinion you want on just about everything – from business to relationships to oh-please-please-lend-me-your-design-eye.

And what else do you really need to know? She’s bright, creative and so much fun. She loves Jung and Springsteen, her dog and her growing family.

She could do anything she wants and I think we’re all lucky that she’s choosing to do this.

Eileen has run her own successful design business since 2005, and is also a certified Dance of Shiva instructor.

Eileen is @evalazza on Twitter.

Sure, she’s whip-smart and business savvy, I wouldn’t partner with someone who wasn’t.

But my most favorite thing about Briana is how she somehow manages to be both the head cheerleader and the brainiac best friend who will sit at the back of class snarking at cheerleaders with you.

I’m not sure how she does both with such style, but trust me when I say this is someone you want on your side.

What else is there to say about Briana? She dreams of hosting her own cooking show, can pull a project together from just about nothing, and has a CPA license rolled up in the original mailing tube in her closet somewhere.

She’s hilarious, and thoughtful, and talking to her is so easy–it’s like talking to a more compassionate, insightful, grounded version of yourself.

Self-employed since 2008, she also works as a production coordinator. And she’s a certified Dance of Shiva instructor, too!
