Here's the short version.

My mom's name was Stefani Lynn. Mine is Stefanie Lynn. We shared that name, and we shared something else too — a way of paying attention that most people don't bother with.

She taught me how to walk into any room and notice what other people missed. How to feel what someone needs before they've said it out loud. Nursing taught me that same thing, just in scrubs instead of in her studio: read the room, stay calm, never let someone leave more confused than when they walked in.

Lynn & Line is named for her, and for the line that's still between us. It's also exactly what shapes everything I make — whether that's a from-scratch build made just for you, or a template that already knows what you need before you've said it. Either way, the same care went into making it.
