The first DwellStudio office. The first DwellStudio crew - Jenna, Jake and me.

I can't really believe that I am writing this post...partly because I can't believe how quickly time slips by but also because I can't believe how long we have been at this. This month marks 10 years that I have been working with Jennifer Chused. 10 years ago on a June day  - Jenna moved her stuff into my tiny unheated Spring Street office to help out because she believed in DwellStudio. I could not pay her so she continued her freelance work from the office too. By all accounts Jenna and I are opposites - she is tall, dark and southern and I am -well -short, blonde and northern - like really northern. Our personalities follow suit - Jenna is calm, calculating and linear and I am crazy, disorganized and very non-linear. I could not have done all of this with out a lot of people but Jenna tops that list. I think that anyone who works at DwellStudio or anyone that ever has would agree that we could all use a little of what Jenna delivers - passion, uncompromising standards and laser focused style.

Jenna and Elizabeth Birkenbuel - the original sales team in 2002.

Jenna and I the summer we met.....we were so young.

From me and everyone at DwellStudio - Thank you Jenna - for 10 great years.  It has never been work with you.
