Founder.
Hello, I'm Sunshine. 

I've recently planted roots in Wangaratta, am a mum of 3, designer, entrepreneur and writer. My partner Jaccob and I co-own Vessel Studio, a space where our passion for design meets our entrepreneurial spirits. Besides this creative venture, I'm also part of the team at Blue Angel Gallery, an international publishing company in the wellbeing industry.

Over the past seven years, my entrepreneurial journey has led me to successfully launch and sell four startups spanning technology, service, and retail sectors. I'm incredibly passionate about weaving inspiration, creativity, and happiness into the fabric of community and love transforming spaces into unique experiences.

One of my early business ventures was Olinda Collective, a boutique that became a permanent hub for local artists and makers to showcase their talent. My business partner and I sold the business in 2016, and it brings me joy to see it continue to flourish as a destination shop in the Dandenong Ranges.

When I moved to Wangaratta, I saw a need for experiences that cater to the young-at-heart and felt an urge to craft a space that feeds our inherent craving for tangible connection and creativity. Thus, this ever-evolving curiosity box was born – a manifestation of my creative heart-space to yours.

I sincerely hope you find as much joy exploring this space as I've found in creating it for you. If you’d like to collaborate or have an inspiring project and would like someone to bounce off I’m always up for a creative chat!
