If you can’t find a way to express yourself, write it down. I’m a native born New Yorker, first generation Honduran, Garifuna. Spanish has been my dominant language, since my mom migrated from Honduras. Verbally expressing myself didn’t always come easy, as a result I began journaling. When I was in highschool I began to write my goals and faithfully made a plan to conquer my to do list.
There comes a point in our life when we begin to create opportunities that seek the threshold to sustain living a life that is worthwhile! We constantly want to seek validation and permission until we create a pathway to secure our future. My mother who is Garifuna, from Honduras has shown me what hard work looks like and unlike no other she continues to persevere. After I became a career mom, I realized the necessity of creating time and space for the life I wanted to live versus constantly overworking myself. There was a commitment to being diligent in working smarter and being committed to a life-long journey fulfilling my passion. I knew there had to be a better way which led me and my sister in law, who is a collector of pens, planners, and journals, to create Well Made Ink. Everytime we shopped for stationary it was either sold out or they did not have what we were looking for all in one place so we created Well Made Ink.

I've kept a journal since I was in elementary school. I would decorate my notebooks and turn them into personalized pieces of art that piled up in the corner of the living room. Journaling has been my go to, when I need to release, vent and figure things out.
After discovering the planning community mostly through youtube and instagram, I quickly learned that I wasn't the only one fascinated with paper crafts, pens and stationery. As Haitian born, Brooklyn raised entrepreneur, teacher, doula and creative soul, stationary and journaling helped me create my safe places.
Well Made Ink is our commitment to the person who seeks to inspire others but needs some but needs some inspiration themselves!
I am excited about serving our clients through our services and look forward to building our community!
