Porter and Stephanie met each other in Charlotte, NC through mutual friends. It didn’t take long before they both realized their shared love of design, creating beautiful things and the relaxed boho aesthetic… oh and of course, their love of cheese & snacks. They decided to take Stephanie’s background in fashion and textile merchandising as well as Porter’s graphic design and photography skills on a metaphorical roadtrip to new beginnings.
