CEO & Founder

A former TV news reporter with a passion for empathetic journalism, Kelley also honed business and leadership skills in corporate America. She draws from both worlds to shape Unshattered's community engagement, and share powerful stories of women in recovery as they continue to choose sobriety.

Product Manager & Creative Lead

Moving to a new school as a preteen led to experimental drug use. Over-prescription of pain killers after a car accident led to a heroin addiction. Now, Amanda is a mom, a leader, and a talented custom handbag designer!

Thank you for being part of my journey!

Production Manager & Seamstress

Being abused as a child by a trusted adult led to crumbled self esteem and isolation. Jenn turned to drugs and alcohol for comfort. But now, she's finding out she's more talented than she ever thought!

Because of you, I am Unshattered!

Staff Trainer & Seamstress

Living in an environment of gang violence, drugs, and criminal activity, Savana was a lost young girl looking for love and attention in a place she couldn’t find it. A terrifying overdose was the catalyst to her change. Today, Savana is growing not only as a talented seamstress, but as a role model as well.

Thank you for helping me realize my potential!

Lead Designer & Seamstress

Nearly an entire lifetime of trauma led Lois into despair. Drinking alcohol was easier than trying to believe she had any value. Today, she's a dynamite designer and genius kit maker!

I love what I do... and I'm so glad you love it too!
