My Story

The Inspiration

Manda was created in memory of my mom, Amanda, whose kindness and creativity continue to inspire every page. My mother passed away by suicide after being prescribed a medication that made her feel unlike herself. It was a heartbreaking part of a long battle she fought with courage, grace, and quiet strength.

The Legacy

Through Manda, I carry on my mom’s legacy by creating pieces that celebrate connection, creativity, and kindness. She was a preschool teacher for over twenty years and touched so many hearts. We shared a love for all things stationery and paper goods.

All designs are inspired by my Mom’s kindness and creativity.
