My passion for nature began when I was a teenager, mowing the lawn on hot summer days and gardening with my parents in the evenings. There's nothing like a juicy beefsteak tomato, picked right off the vine!

Then I was off to college to study psychology. I remember filling my tiny dorm room with plants, including a rather fussy Ficus Benjamina. I married my college sweetheart, George, moved to NYC and began my fashion career as a merchandiser at Bloomingdale's, J.Crew, and Michael Kors. In my spare time, I attended the New York School of Interior Design. Soon after, we moved to the "burbs" to raise our family and I landed a job as a merchandiser/designer at a kitchen and bath design center.

So, how do all these dots connect? My love for psychology fuels my passion for mental health and peace of mind AND my background as a merchandiser and designer taught me to curate beautiful spaces.

In 2018, before the pandemic, I decided to combine all my skills and passions to launch Moss & More. I believe houseplants bring life and serenity to our spaces, which is essential for our well-being. In a rushed world where mental health is a growing challenge, it’s vital to slow down and reconnect with nature.

Welcome to Moss & More, home to fabulous planters, gifts and design accents that spark happiness.

Let’s grow together!
