About Annette

Annette loves all things design and decor and has dreamed about being an interior designer since being a young girl (we recently stumbled across a forgotten research report she wrote on the topic in middle school).

Her inspirations include atomic age and mid-modern architecture as well as all things classic, timeless and French.

About Mike

I grew up in the early 2000’s remodeling and flipping houses with my mother and a team of rag-tag handymen. While I have a full-time job in the marketing world, I love utilizing some of the handyman skills I acquired growing up.

I am also the Founder of Rocks n’ Roses – www.rocksnroses.com. A small start-up that curates and designs unique gift boxes/bags such as the Bourbon Box and the Golf Swag Bag.
