Biography
At their very core Tami Ramsay and Krista Nye Nicholas are curators and storytellers. Both inspired as children by their international travels and the natural world, they were invariably drawn to tell their stories through creation by incorporating the objects and relics of those experiences into their lives like talisman. The textiles from India became magical, the shells and rocks from Argentina became treasure chest bounty.
This early reverence for objects and the assignment of meaning to things found served as a telling precursor to embracing their true voice and vision for story telling through space.
Many life experiences later, they have come full circle. Their combined aesthetic is a unique confluence of the myriad inspirations encountered in the world, other cultures and in the simplicity of their daily lives. And like their lives, their creative vision always reaches for that splendid mix of layers, textures and art. At best, it is a playful intersection of what makes them deeply happy.
They parlay this vision into each project and engage their clients in a collaborative exercise so that in the end, together, they create spaces with history and heart, with story and substance.

- The Founder’s Lab is my private coaching program for female founders who are generating more than 7-figures in their revenue. It’s a complement to the Entrepreneurial Management program (with Brooke Castillo) and is a part of the work you get as a client of mine. This isn’t a “class.” I don’t give you copious tons of things to do. I give you the ones that matter and then we keep talking about them. We apply them. That’s why it’s called the Founder’s Lab.
