Name: Kelly Harrigan

Hometown: Woodbridge, VA

School: Virginia Tech (GO HOKIES!!)

Inspiration: I get inspiration from what I happen to see on any given day, that’s where one of my favorite products comes in handy (see below).  I’m also obsessed with Ancient Egypt and Central/South American folk art.

Favorite Product: My cell phone. I get a Phone + Digital camera + Wikipedia but only have to keep track of one thing. And my white wool parka makes me feel like a million bucks.

What makes me quirky: During college my roommate and I named our plants. Combined we had about 9 but it all started with my jade plant, Yoshimi.
