About Us

Hi, I’m Ava.

I'm an audiobook narrator, voice-over artist, and curator of products.

My journey began in Los Angeles, California.  Originally from San Diego, I came to LA chasing the dream of acting and storytelling. Along the way, I discovered a love for herbs and essential oils and using them to craft products that nurture the senses.  I started with handmade soaps and bath soaks, and eventually grew into a brick-and-mortar (A hair salon and day spa).

Life took me down many paths. The salon closed.  I found myself emersed in joy of audiobook narrating, which I still love. I also experienced the heartbreak of losing both of my parents as an only child just 16 months apart. Then, the sudden loss of my beloved dog Bruno. In the midst of that grief, I felt untethered, unable to work, and searching for something to steady me. I found an anchor in creating again.  In the slow, mindful process of cultivating things.

It began with a simple challenge: to create the perfect Lotion Bar. Through months of trial and hundreds of attempts, I blended cocoa butter, fractionated coconut oil, safflower, and grapeseed oils, with just a whisper of sweet orange essential oil. Designed with no wax or fillers, the result smelled like a memory (my grandmother taking me to See’s Candies as a young girl) and carried with it an unexpected gift--peace.

The process was more than product development for me.  It was therapy. Aromatherapy, texture, and  working with plant essences grounded me, helping me regulate emotions and reconnect with myself. I became inspired to create more: candles from all-natural wax, magnesium mist, and other aromatherapeutic products, all designed to soothe anxiety, improve sleep, and bring a moment of calm to a busy day.

Every product I make is designed with the same intention-- to soothe, to ground, and to calm.  From all-natural wax candles to aromatherapeutic sprays, each product is handcrafted with care, made in small artisanal batches, inspired by the belief that small rituals can help us heal. 

Whether you know me for the audiobooks I've narrated or discover me through my creations, my hope is the same — that something I’ve made helps you feel a little more balanced, a little more peaceful, and a little more you.
