THE DESIGNER

— erin  ( kindled + kindred )

"at the end of the day, i truly believe entrepreneurship comes down to using your work — whatever it may be — to help people REACH THEIR GOALS AND know they're not alone.

i feel, in my bones, that we all just want to know, "do you see me? does my story matter?"
