about us

Elana is an educator and mom whose best friends were books for most of her childhood. Born and raised in Denver. Colorado, she currently works as an elementary school principal and is the proud mom of twenty-five-year-old twins who have grown up into pretty fabulous adults. Elana considers herself a lifelong learner who loves cooking, travel, working with children, and books.

Esti is sometimes a “designer” and “writer,” trained as an architect, who still doesn’t know what they want to be when they grow up. At the moment, Esti is a graduate student in Visual and Critical Studies at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago where they study the relationships between architecture, urbanism, and narratives of place with an emphasis on spatial manifestations of power and queer geographies. Esti loves cities, school, cheese, and their rescue mutt, Frankie.
