the people behind the paper…

Michelle Loretta... Founder of the Paper Goodness
Michelle founded mmm… paper in 2004. She eats, sleeps,
and breathes paper – and will do so with your invitation design. (Just
ask her husband about her sleep-talking: “paper with pink posies.”) When
she’s not dreaming up new ways to fold paper, she’s scheming up expansion
plans for the company. She loves what she does! Learn more about
the passion for the paper that started all this at (original “about us” link).

Madrona Brunetti... Guru of Production
Madrona has been with mmm… paper since January 2007. Her
attention to detail is unmatched and highly valued. As a part of our
team, Madrona ensures that every invite that walks out the door is top-notch.
When she’s assembling invites, Madrona gets into a groove and becomes
one with the paper. She says, “Assembly is fun because once you
figure out a method it just flows . . .and you are able to create a little
bit of order and beauty in the world!” She will be graduating
from Seattle University this June 2008 with a degree in political science,
with an international emphasis. Madrona loves to travel and speaks
German fluently. Our lives are better because we work with such a great
gal!

Kelli Thoumsin ~ Master Assembler
Kelli joined the team
in February 2008. She is very creative; her artistry and talent abound. Quality
and outstanding craftsmanship are at the core of everything Kelli produces.
This girl is positive - always with an easy-going outlook on life. We feed
off Kelli's good energy! She has a soft spot for the "less popular" papers
- and always shows them love by melding them into their own unique beauty.
Kelli is an art student at Seattle University and in her free time Kelli
looks at life through the lens of a camera. Her photos are phenomenal! Kelli
rocks! (paper! scissors!)
