My favorite part about 2020 was that despite the uncertainty and the unknowns, all around me I saw clients and colleagues strive. With no playbook in site, everywhere I turned, I saw pivots, flexibility and sheer grit. We persevered together and as we emerge on what I hope is the other side, I know we are all stronger, wiser and more equipped than ever to handle adversity in business and in life. I’d like to take this opportunity, on one of the last days of this rollercoaster year to shout out some incredible achievements.

The Laundress saw triple digit growth while pushing towards more sustainable products and B-Corp status

Neat Method set the bar high this year but you exceeded all goals and expectations

Rondel Jewelry launched a one-of-a-kind jewelry concept with a huge splash including press in Wall Street Journal, Vogue and Will’s Notebook

With tasting room options in limbo due to Covid and the safety of their staff and customers in mind, Suarez Family Brewery mastered curbside pick-up like no other brewery in the valley.

Christiane Lemieux was able to build upon the growth in home furnishings with record-setting momentum and exposure

With museums in the city closed, the Skyscraper Museum’s curator pivoted to creating YouTube videos.

We’re ready for you 2021. 💥

Eco-friendly formulas and practices are the core of The Laundress, LLC.' business -- always have been, always will. Now, along with Unilever, we are taking a bold new step towards reducing our footprint. I’m beyond excited to be working towards this important goal.

The investment is a big step toward reaching the consumer giant’s goal of zeroing out emissions from its operations and its suppliers by 2039.

Shoutout to Lindsey Boyd for her recent NPR feature on Guy Raz’s “How I Built This.” Hearing the story of how she moonlit from her day job and bootstrapped alongside cofounder Gwen Whiting never gets old. It’s a story we can all learn from — relentless determination, resourcefulness, intimately understanding the customer, and building a strong brand. Listen here...

In the late 1990s, while working in high-end fashion in NYC, Lindsey Boyd came to despise the weekly ritual of dry-cleaning; not only was it expensive, but it often did damage to her clothes.

I am so excited to be working on the B Corp validation process. The certification represses everything I believe in when it comes to how businesses should operate as purpose-driven, honest, ethical and sustainable entities. It’s the gold standard in my opinion. More news coming soon!
