Continuing our monthly focus on the incredible MAISON 10 community, celebrating the diverse talents, colorful personalities, and beautiful souls that make this so much more than a store – please meet Rashmi Gill. 

Growing up in England, the daughter of immigrants, Rashmi did what any “good little Indian girl” would do, and trained as a lawyer. But a yearning to explore her creative side led to a successful side hustle in photography. When she moved to New York six years ago, she launched her photography business full time (her work recently appeared in Vogue). She lives in the city with her husband and two young children, and is chair of the board of the New York City Alliance Against Sexual Assault, one of MAISON 10’s adopted charities. This is her story.

First off, a massive shout out goes to our friend Alvin Hall, who has just won a Best History Podcast Ambie award for 'Driving The Green Book', his powerfully told journey through the segregated South, from Detroit to New Orleans. Give this a listen ASAP.

So, in honor of Mother’s Day this Sunday, we want to introduce you – our MAISON 10 family – to Maria and Helena. Our beloved moms.
