Maria Lithgow

I've always been a jeans and t-shirts kind of gal -- back when I met Steph it was miniskirts and tees -- the basics are where I'm most comfortable. I like to see people have fun with their personal style and it inspires me to keep thinking of fresh ways to strut the basics. My work in sales for a screen printing and embroidery company opened my eyes to the possibilities of different print processes, colors, fabrics and designs. My interests and hobbies are varied and allow me to bring a well-rounded perspective to our design team. My friendship with Steph is 25 years strong and I consider myself blessed to have such a brilliant, funny and creative partner. She makes sure I stay on track and I make sure she's not out in left field chasing dragonflies. I love being on the road with our designs and getting to meet the folks who appreciate our vision. The best part is, we have fun in whatever we do...

Stephanie Sanford

Growing up an only child, I have always had an overactive imagination. I found myself looking for ways to express my deep creative side -- band, drama, school newspaper, etc. I met Maria when I was fifteen, and together we shared unstoppable energy. My natural ability to please people led me to leadership roles in the Customer Service industry. I quickly learned that I could use my wit and quirky side to address both the customer and the employee. It's my zany, creative side that I truly enjoy using as a partner in our design team. The intense drive and energy that exists between Maria and I is what brings the passion to our brand, and the smiles and laughs to our customers.
