Kerry is a first-generation college student and aspiring early education teacher. After aging out of foster care, she moved into her own space for the first time and has been working to make it feel calm, inspiring, and truly hers.

They are a creative touch that will bring brightness and beauty into her living space, while honoring her sense of style and ownership.
