ABOUT LARRABEE
ABOUT THE NAME
What’s with the name LARRABEE?
Larrabee is the name of the street in West Hollywood, California where I live. It has been my home since 1997 when I moved from my place of origin, New Jersey (in the ‘burbs of NYC aka “the City”).
Since then, I’ve lived in NYC, Brooklyn, DC & Austin for short periods of adventure. But my place on Larrabee Street in West Hollywood has been my home since I was 22 years old.
So LARRABEE is home (literally & figuratively).

AN UNEXPECTED SPARK: HOW LARRABEE WAS BORN
When Your Closet Stages an Intervention
If my journey to creating a candle company were a map, it would look less like a straight line and more like a game of drunk connect-the-dots – complete with coffee stains and questionable detours. I'm only half-jokingwhen I say Larrabee was born from a happy accident, though it took years of accidental preparation to get there.
The truth lacks the glossy shine of a well-crafted business plan. Instead, it started with the kind of spring cleaning that happens when your closet starts giving you judgmental looks. Behind an archaeological layer of MTV swag and a proudly curated (now entombed) CD collection, I discovered boxes of candle-making supplies – survivors of an old craft class and abandoned holiday gift ambitions. They'd been patiently waiting while I chased my storytelling dreams through the labyrinth of television production.
