Decades of recycling, reusing, and composting led to the opening of Bulk Refillery in 2023. A desire to do more than make personal changes—it inspired action. After being introduced to a store dedicated to refilling and living a more package-free lifestyle I wanted to create an accessible, low-waste living concept for my community. Bring your own jar and refill items like laundry detergent, body wash, shampoo, conditioner, seasonings, spices, oil, local honey, sourdough bread and more. We offer workshops too! Beyond my business, I am an active community leader, serving on the City of Edmonds Parks and Rec Board, former board director for All Things Baby a 501c3 and various other community outreach programs. Community connection and involvement are deeply important to me, and I strive to lead by example in both service and sustainability. When I’m not working you can find me playing pickleball, gardening, or spending time with my chickens—simple joys that keep me grounded and connected.
