MEET THE OWNER & FOUNDER: LISA THOMAS  


"I view myself as a conduit in connecting; people, ideas, art, places, beautiful things and concepts. I love nothing more than daydreaming ideas, but more than that, I thrive on bringing them to life with an incredible cast of characters! I am so lucky that I get to work with so many creative souls; people with a passion for excellence and find so much joy in making people happy. It’s truly one of life’s great gifts! The Art of Creating has been a dream since I was 15 years old and I have spent a lifetime on windy roads, evolving and refining ideas to make everyone’s experience better all the time." - Lisa Thomas
