Kristin Costin
\n2023 Business Woman of the Year<\/h4>\n

\"\"

From a young age Kristin was fascinated with unique jewelry that has a story to tell. Jewelry collected during family travels was her route to connect with others by proudly telling the story of where the piece came from.\u00a0\u00a0She loves collecting the stories of artists, and honed this passion during her studies of Eastern Religion and Studio Arts at the University of Rochester, NY. It was here that she first learned about sustainability, and became interested in how to be an active participant in doing better for our earth. Her love of jewelry and art and passion for protecting nature combined to spark her interest in sustainable artists around the world.<\/p>\n

Her gallery now showcases the works of over 50 artists- 99% of them female. Intent on giving back, her business model incorporates robust collaborations between nonprofits and artists working together to raise awareness about and funding for issues in our community. In addition to these collaborations, the gallery donates 1% of all profits to EndoWhat?, a nonprofit working to raise awareness for Endometriosis.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
