Michelle Marquardt loves the world of retail and every aspect of bringing an idea, a theme, and a product to life and into the hands of the thoughtful consumer. She has had the opportunity to have collaborated with some of the best retail partners in the country which has given her sound knowledge of the mass retail market and a wide scope of knowledge of textile design and product development for both soft and hard home.  For Michelle, working in retail for the past 10 years has always been an exhilarating and creative challenge. She fully enjoys the opportunity of working among a large team and creating a line that is right for the customer, right for the business, but also trend forward and fresh.
