#ThankfulThursday - Edition #15: Jaclyn Jackel

Jaclyn is like a sister to me and we grew up together, along with my older Sister and her younger Sister. We've passed clothes back and forth amongst the 4 of us, filled with plenty of embarrassing photos and videos from the 80s and 90s as our "sharing is caring" attitude transcended our fashion styles. Jaclyn has always been by my side regardless of the miles between us and she has always encouraged me to follow my dreams. She has always supported my passion for Volite and years ago gave me the first notebook that I ever used to write down my ideas and first draft drawings of the original logo. She always knows how to make me and anyone else around her laugh, making every time we're together a good time. Jaclyn is an amazingly talented graphic designer, who is super creative and has an unfiltered passion that truly ignites a spark when we are brainstorming together. We have so many different visual design concepts that we can't wait to share with you and to launch with Volite! I am so grateful for Jaclyn and for the many years of friendship we have shared. I know that I can always depend on her and I can't wait to make our ideas a reality so that you can follow along and be inspired by our silliness.

#ThankfulThursday - Edition #8: My Sister, Rachel


Thankful Thursday this week is dedicated to my older Sister, Rachel. She was my very first friend and has always been by my side. She looks out for me, supports me, laughs with me, cries with me and always has my back no matter what. We've had some epic battles as siblings and shared a room for the greater part of our childhood. I've borrowed her clothes many times without asking and hoped I could sneak them back into her dresser before she got home and noticed. Over the years she's taught me how to stand tall as an individual by letting me be who I am and she's introduced me to many different genres of music, including taking me to my first concert with Mom to see Bone Thugs-n-Harmony and Ginuwine when I was 10 years old. I am so grateful to have a Sister and to have MY Sister as a friend and someone that I know I can always count on.

#ThankfulThursday - Edition #3: Mari Barron

Mari has been one of my best friends since we were in middle school and is someone that I know I can truly trust. We love a lot of the same music and whenever we are together we are always cracking jokes, laughing and having a good time! When Mari gets in the zone, her one of a kind artistic style truly shines and she is especially great with stencil work. She is so focused and has such a high attention to detail, sprinkled with an amazingly laid back, fun, unique and creative vibe. Mari is an amazing artist and I have really enjoyed seeing the many different projects that she has created over the years. She drew all of the original VoliteINC. t-shirt designs, which are classic to the official branding of this company. Thank you, MariB!
Here's an original drawing that Mari made especially for Volite, INC.:

Kristen is my Bestie and we have been best friends since middle school. She's always had back and I've got hers! We have a weird way of always making each other laugh with inside jokes that could go on for years. She introduced me to live rock music at BFD in Mountain View many many years ago and I am so grateful for that. We have been going to shows together ever since and both have a true passion and respect for music and musicianship. She is a true musician who can sing, write and read music with a strong drive to support the music industry through her innate instinct and backed by a degree from SF State in Broadcast and Electronic Communication Arts. She currently lives in San Diego so we don't get to see each other as much as we used to, but we talk every week on Wednesdays to chat about our business ideas. She and I have so many sandboxes full of ideas that we want to launch through VoliteINC. and share with you! Stay tuned...we're dangerously awesome when we're together... 
 
For you Bestie: "Always remember, never forget... the past, it's behind you..." ;)
