Ladies, Wine Design was started by Jessica Walsh. Only a tiny percent of creative directors are women, and LW&D wants to help change this through mentorship circles, portfolio reviews, and creative meet-ups. In less than a year of launching, we've spread to chapters in over 75 cities all over the world.
LW&D El Paso was started by Meylen Peng and Brioch Ochoa in August 2016. I have been lucky enough to be with them since the beginning.
