✨ From Stitches to Structures: The Story Behind King + Lola

My story began at the age of nine, when I first learned to sew—a skill that sparked my lifelong passion for design and creativity. As a self-taught fashion designer, I grew that passion into a thriving business, with pieces that found their way into small boutiques and even onto the shelves of Nordstrom. But for me, fashion was never just about style—it has always been about impact.

Through King + Lola, I’ve made it my mission to give back, donating new clothing to Atlanta’s housing-insecure communities while building a brand rooted in sustainability. I love transforming upcycled finds and forgotten garments into fresh, modern pieces. There is something deeply fulfilling about giving new life to materials that others have given up on—reducing waste while creating something truly unique.

My journey has never been conventional. Alongside my work as a designer, I earned my MBA from Georgia State University, became a licensed Realtor®, and built a career in commercial real estate with leading REITs. My passion for design expanded into interiors and home staging, and with a family legacy of three generations of builders, it’s no surprise I now work as a construction project manager, PMP-certified and fueled by a love of organization and creativity.

From designing fashion to designing spaces, I proudly embrace the title of Corporate-preneur—balancing business, creativity, and service while staying true to my love for God, my family, and my community.

King + Lola is the culmination of this journey: a brand where sustainable luxury meets creativity, offering capsule collections that are as intentional as they are beautiful.
