Owner
Lee Ann moved to Portland in 2008 following an eight-year stint in Paris, France, where she spent a lot of time in cafes. Though she thought no city could compete with the City of Lights, the City of Roses immediately stole her heart. As a great place to raise kids, she loves getting out and exploring the city and region with her husband and four young children.
While in France, Lee Ann earned a B.A. in Journalism and a Master’s in Linguistics at the American University of Paris and L’Universite de Paris – La Sorbonne, respectively, before returning stateside to become a Speech-Language Pathologist through the Portland State University graduate program. Her professional experience spans over a decade of online and offline media marketing, including community management, content strategy, advertising and event planning. She recently opened Make + Take Studio, a crafting space in North Portland, where she runs workshops and hosts birthday parties, baby showers, corporate events, and more.
As a small business owner and mother, she strives to get some occasional “me” time in, which she likes to spend geocaching, jogging, sewing, and staring at the wall with no small humans talking to her.
