Hi, I'm Amy!

I'm married to my high school sweetheart, and we're pet parents to two golden retrievers (Toby and Cassie), and one kitty (Momo) who recently crossed the rainbow bridge.

I'm a fantasy romance author, a jewelry maker, a backyard birder, and a Disney nerd. I love gardening, cross-stitch, reality TV, and chocolate.

Oh, and did I mention I have this little thing called Flourish Gift Shop? It's a boutique for women who like pretty and unique things, and who like to feel pretty and unique.

Welcome to Flourish!

Flourish is a small, woman-owned gift shop based in Buffalo, New York. I started Flourish because I've always been drawn to meaningful and beautiful things (especially handmade) like one-of-a-kind jewelry, accessories that help you express your passions, and small comforts that romanticize your day.

Flourish grew from a jewelry-making hobby into a curated boutique focused around experienced and quality handmade jewelry. I expanded our offerings to include other woman-owned small businesses as well as some established brands that I personally use and love. Flourish even had two years as a physical store, during which I made so many wonderful connections with people.

Today, Flourish has evolved into a more thoughtfully-paced business, living online and at local events around Western New York. This shift allows me to focus on curating and creating meaningful, high-quality goods while still sharing those connections, just at a more intentional pace.

Thank you for supporting not just my business, but my dream of bringing joy and creativity to others. It means the world to me that you're here!
