A Different Kind of Impact

From Fortune 500 strategy to heirloom textiles: building a sustainable luxury brand rooted in purpose and family.

A Different Kind of Impact

I spent nearly 20 years advising Fortune 500 companies and senior government leaders on strategy, risk, and global security challenges. My work took me into rooms where decisions carried real consequences—shaping how organizations think, operate, and scale.

After having three children, I found myself drawn to a different kind of impact—one rooted in how we live, gather, and create meaning at home, and in the long-term consequences of the consumer choices we make and the values we leave behind.

That shift led me to found Paloma Home Interiors, a heritage-driven textile brand focused on heirloom-quality rugs and thoughtfully sourced goods. We partner directly with artisans to create pieces that are both enduring and deeply personal through product customization, all-natural materials, and generational practices that transcend modern manufacturing.

At Paloma, we believe in a more thoughtful model of commerce—one that elevates women-owned and small businesses, connects makers directly with the homes they shape, and favors made-to-order pieces over the disposability of fast fashion.

As we look toward the future of our growing sustainable luxury brand, we are also exploring the evolution of experiential shopping through early-stage concept development in tech-enabled retail—bridging physical environments with digital discovery. It seems you can never fully shed your formative years as a consultant at a leading tech company.

This next chapter represents a different kind of convergence—where my past and future meet more intentionally, with a focus on what truly matters: my three children and their future.

Built from the ground up and shaped by a belief in doing things differently, we’re grateful to have you follow along on this journey as we work to positively influence consumer purchasing decisions in a meaningful new way.
