Meet the Owner

Hi! I’m a toddler mom, photographer, and founder of the Bainbridge Island hiking group, Tots on the Trail. I’m currently bringing my long-time dream to life by opening Bainbridge Play Cafe. Earlier this year, I was honored to join the 2025 Matchstick Lab Micro Business Accelerator, which gave me the tools and confidence to move forward. Outside of work, I love running, baking, and traveling the world with my husband and our 3-year-old daughter.
