Sticker Maker Extraordinaire (Kidding… mostly)
I’m a dynamic entrepreneur based in the Charleston, SC subrbs. Together with my husband, four cats, and two dogs, I lead a fulfilling and busy life managing three successful online businesses – including my Etsy shop primarily selling stickers that I print, laminate, and cut in my home studio.
I struggle with ADHD and Narcolepsy, so managing my businesses can be challenging at times. That’s why I’m passionate about utilizing strategies that grow my sticker business even during times when I can’t be as actively engaged as I’d like to be.
I’m teaching you what I know! 😎
Okay, where’e the proof?
I get it. Who the heck am I to be teaching anything about selling stickers? Fair question. There’s a lot of business coaches out there and we’re all saying some pretty conflicting things. So here’s how you know that I know what I’m doing. 😉
I just wanted to share a little about myself so you can get a sense of who I am in and out of business mode. Did we just become best friends? I bet we did. #besties
Yikes. That really crept up on me. 🙈 I feel like I’ve done a little bit of everything. Think things like…
- Managing a Print on Demand shop (before it was cool)
- 2D texturing and 3D modeling for IMVU and Second Life (I sold digital goodies for people who bred online bunnies, if you can believe it)
- Professional graphic design and branding
- Small business coaching (which I’ve done the longest)
- and of course my Sticker Shop
Point is… I know a little about a lot. I like to keep busy and to try new things.
I’m a multi-passionate entrepreneur, so it’s probably no surprise that I teach a variety of business topics ranging from blogging to affiliate marketing to creating business ecosystems.
In fact, Stickers for Profit is part of mine. While I consider it my third business, it’s sort of part of a bigger picture for me in the online business world.
My Etsy shop Sleepy Unicorn Studio is my second love, and it started as a business side quest. I love that I can now use it as a way to teach students that, like me, need an additional creative outlet.
I was diagnosed with ADHD in 2021. My sticker shop offers a lot of designs based on my late in life diagnosis.
I also have Narcolepsy, which is where the name Sleepy Unicorn Studio comes from – my perpetual need for naps.
You read that correctly. I had a Star Wars wedding on May 4, 2018 (yes, Star Wars day!) officiated by Emperor Palpatine. We’re not even hardcore Star Wars fans… it just happened that May 4th was already our dating anniversary, and we thought it would be funny. No one can say we’re not committed to the bit.
There’s a lot of pet fur around here 😅 (don’t worry… my cats aren’t allowed in my studio, and I wipe down my packing table every day!
We have 4 cats named Bruce & Oliver (they’re littermates), Harley, and Thea. Plus we’ve got 2 dogs named Alfred and Bane.
Can you guess who each is named after?
