Vol. 1 — The Checked Bag

For years, I believed I was only really good at two things: traveling and shopping. Eventually, I realized that was more than enough.

This first volume of The Checked Bag is a love letter to where it all began—how solo trips turned into vintage sourcing missions, how a dream born in the suburbs of Illinois led to a showroom by the beach, and how finally letting go of what I “should” be brought me back to what I’ve always loved.

Whether you’re new here or a Sunset Club regular, I hope this story reminds you to chase the thing that won’t leave you alone.
