Our Story
About our Founder
Lauren Ashley Studio emerged in late 2017 within the vibrant landscape of Houston, Texas, under the visionary leadership of Jill Ramirez, a devoted mother to triplets - a daughter and two sons. The genesis of this venture can be traced back to a pivotal moment when her triplets reached the age of three. With three birthdays converging on a single day, Jill found herself immersed in the joyous whirlwind of hosting a celebratory gathering replete with numerous friends and family members. Eager to express her gratitude to each guest in a meaningful manner, she sought to bestow upon them tokens of appreciation that were not only special but also possessed utility.
Through a succession of celebratory occasions, festive seasons, and instances of gift-giving to teachers (multiplied by three), Jill dedicated herself to meticulously crafting extraordinary gifts tailored to resonate with each recipient over time. It was in the latter part of 2017 that she resolved to materialize her vision, enlisting the expertise of Elizabeth Micheli, lead designer and founder of EM Branding Studio. Together, they embarked on a collaborative endeavor aimed at establishing a company that would extend assistance to individuals like Jill, facilitating the seamless provision of heartfelt and thoughtful gifts in a manner that is both stress-free and deeply personal.
Behind the Brand
In May 2023, driven by personal considerations, Jill made the decision to entrust the reins of the company to an individual who had been an integral part of its journey from its inception - someone who shared her profound affection and understanding of the company. Elizabeth, alongside her partner, assumed ownership of Lauren Ashley Studio, now headquartered in Florida, with an unwavering commitment to perpetuating the remarkable legacy of service excellence established by Jill over the preceding six years.
With an impressive tenure spanning over eight years in facilitating the realization of entrepreneurial dreams, Elizabeth brings to the fore an unparalleled dedication to precision and a discerning eye for design. Together with her partner, Elizabeth pledges to uphold the core ethos of Lauren Ashley Studio by fostering enduring partnerships with brands and collaborators who espouse a shared dedication to impeccable quality and artisanal craftsmanship. Central to our mission is the steadfast commitment to curating and delivering meaningful gifts with seamless efficiency, ensuring that each interaction leaves an indelible impression of thoughtfulness and care.
