Rosario Camarasa | Owner of Rada Design

Having an upholstery business has been a deeply stimulating journey for us, who own a metalworking industry in our home country. This type of enterprise is inherently creative and fosters strong connections within the community, as people entrust us with their cherished pieces to breathe new life into them. The process begins with selecting a piece of furniture that has been a part of the home for years, sourced from antique shops or second-hand markets, or even custom-designed for a special space in a home, hotel, restaurant, etc. In carrying out this task, we employ ancient artisanal techniques that ensure the quality of our craftsmanship, simultaneously reclaiming its value. Furthermore, we aim to combat the culture of disposability, which wreaks havoc on both society and the planet. Read more>>

Jackie Esther Yesharim | Creative Designer

While my original intention with Home Over House may have been to share DIY projects and tablescapes, it has blossomed into something much more meaningful. Home Over House is helping redefine our femininity, aiming to inspire and empower women to embrace their roles as homemakers, wives, and mothers in a way that is both modern and traditional. As a Jewish woman, I strive to bring a modern twist to traditional holidays and celebrations. By incorporating new ideas and designs while still honoring our religious traditions, I hope to inspire others to embrace their culture in a fresh and exciting way! A very big part of my religion is giving “tzedakah”, which many people assume just means giving money. However, tzedakah means so much more, it means giving of your time, your resources, and your energy to help those in need. I make sure to always be involved in helping charities and non-profits, because I believe that we have a responsibility to use our gifts and blessings to make the world a better place. Read more>>

Adrianne Calvo | Restaurateur, Chef, Author, Podcast Host

Chef Adrianne’s Vineyard Restaurant and Bar helps the community by adding to the local economy. Great restaurants generate revenue for their neighborhoods and keep it there. Next is employment. We employ over 100 team members, providing jobs ranging from entry-level to management positions, contributing to local employment opportunities. I love that if you live in the suburbs, you don’t have to drive 40 minutes to an hour in traffic to work in a great restaurant. We also focus on quality ingredients lead to partnerships with local farmers, winemakers, and other producers, which helps support local agriculture and small businesses. Chef Adrianne’s also often participates in community events, charitable fundraisers, and local initiatives. Being involved in such activities strengthens community ties. Read more>>
