Missy Tannen: Co-Founder and Chief Product Officer of Boll & Branch
Missy Tannen is the co-founder and chief product officer of the luxury bedding and linens company Boll & Branch. She began her career as a third-grade teacher before transitioning to being a stay-at-home mom to her three children. In 2014, she and her husband (and co-founder), Scott, were hoping to upgrade their bedding but struggled to find quality products at a reasonable price point. Missy began researching the world of bedding and noticed a dearth of quality items available, as well as unethical business practices. So, she and Scott set out to build something better, resulting in Boll & Branch, which they launched in 2014. The company has its own, transparent supply chain and uses 100% organic, fair-trade cotton from a nonprofit farming cooperative in India. The brand carries soft, durable, classic linens and has expanded into new categories like bath towels, pillow inserts, and more. Over the last decade, it’s seen huge growth, topping $200 million in revenue last year. Boll & Branch originally started as a direct-to-consumer company but now has several retail stores and plans to open seven new ones in 2025. It is also carried in major retailers like Bloomingdale’s and Nordstrom.Use code SECONDLIFE20 for 20% off your order! No minimum. Expires 4/30.

Danessa Myricks: Danessa Myricks Beauty Founder
Danessa Myricks, founder of Danessa Myricks Beauty, started out her career in nursing before parlaying a chance meeting with a media executive into a job at a hair-and-beauty magazine publisher. When the magazine she worked for abruptly closed, she pivoted again, teaching herself to be a makeup artist. She built up her experience and expertise and, within a few years, was an in-demand artist teaching at trade shows and selling DVDs of her master classes. She then went on to work at Kiss and Benefit, where she led product development and innovation on projects such as Benefit’s brow collection. In 2015, she launched her eponymous brand, which made a splash in the beauty world with its imaginative, multiuse products. The brand launched in Sephora in 2021 and has seen huge year-on-year growth, all while creating entirely new formulas and offering programs like the Danessa Myricks Angels, which provides mentorship opportunities to up-and-coming artists.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
