Meet the Founder

Creating art and serving the community have always remained cornerstones in my life - vibrant expressions of passion and innovation. From a young age creating art became my sanctuary; Thereby leading a hobby toward a business venture. After earning my Bachelor’s of Business Administration in 2022, a blend of inspiration and intention resulted in structuring Contemporary by Carli LLC in 2023. Empowering confidence and courage through crafting one of a kind creations remains a personal mission of mine.

Combining a wildly ambitious attitude + entrepreneurial spirit, Mosaic of Athena exemplifies lush creativity.

Rooted in
Craft + Community

For me, creating art has been more than a creative outlet - it’s a way to connect, heal and celebrate shared experiences. Over the past two decades, my creative journey evolved from a maker to a mentor as well. Through coordinating community crafting events and philanthropic collaborations, a creative call to action can aid a thriving community.
