About Us

I was born and raised between two cultures on the Texas-Mexico border, where bilingualism, family traditions, and cultural exchange shaped my identity. My career in public health taught me the importance of preserving culture and serving communities.
My husband and I built Casa Gardenia as a family business and a legacy for our son. Each collection is ethically sourced directly from artisan families, celebrating generations of tradition and creating meaningful connections between the makers and those who receive each piece.
