Elise Waugh, UncommonGoods Public Relations Manager, Marketing

My hometown…
Can be pointed out on my hand: Grand Rapids, Michigan.

I’m inspired by…
Reading. Whether it’s Fast Company, Metropolis, Refinery29, or Harry Potter – I’m inspired by it all.

I’m passionate about…
Feminism, mid-century modern furniture, sustainability, and writing.

When I was little, I dreamed of…
According to my parents, being a clown or a veterinarian. I guess PR is somewhere in between.

If I could travel back in time, I’d…
Turn and face the strange – in other words, see David Bowie on tour.

If I could meet anyone, living or not, I would choose…
Prince.

My favorite quote is…
“Well-behaved women seldom make history.” – Laurel Thatcher Ulrich

Something that always makes me laugh…
The girls from Broad City and Michael Scott from The Office.

An uncommon fact about me…
I used to work for an awesome aquarium.

Elise is the Public Relations Manager at UncommonGoods. She’s a big fan of movies, architecture, and sustainability. When she’s not playing fetch with her cat, spouting lines from Roadhouse, or talking up the breweries in her home state of Michigan, she’s laughing at feminist comedy or watching '90s sitcoms. Her perfect dinner party would include Bowie, David Lynch, and the Notorious R.B.G.
