About

My journey with the Grateful Dead started at the very root. As a San Francisco Bay Area native, I grew up soaking in the music—living in the exact same Atherton, California house that Bob Weir grew up in. By fifteen, I was attending shows, building a spiritual foundation that became an integral part of the person I am today.

 

Shopping on Shakedown Street has always been my absolute happy place. I've always loved to shop, but the lot is special—talking to the vendors, discovering what they brought, and feeding that passion for the hunt. It’s where my love for eclectic fashion and putting unique styles together really comes alive.

 

These days, I’m living in Massachusetts, balancing life as a wife and a mom of two with a career selling weed. I also run Strangers Stopping Strangers, a platform I started for Deadheads to connect with one another through our podcasts and live shows, champion independent small businesses, and share a digital Shakedown experience built for a community beyond description.
