As a certified eldest daughter and self-diagnosed sentimental gal, I’ve been helping people pick out gifts for as long as I can remember. This time of year is when I THRIVE. Think ultra-niche gift guides, small shops worth knowing about, thoughtfully curated finds, and gifts that feel a little more special than your average Amazon scroll (though, of course, there’s a little of that too). Basically, if you have a very specific person to shop for, I’m your girl.
