Our Team

Pat Shen

Founder, Curator

Pat is in constant pursuit of beauty, experience, and a good story. Alongside leading Sidebloom and Our Heiday, she loves being with her husband, two girls and pup, bookmarking the next restaurant, recipe, or adventure, adding another book to her bedside table, and gathering around the table at home.

Mary Smith

Shop Manager

A theatre kid at heart, Mary enjoys catching a play every once in a while, fawning over her two cats, and cooking in her kitchen. When she’s not singing along to Taylor Swift, you’ll catch her watching horror films, practicing her Spanish, or driving up to Deukmejian with her partner for a picnic and a hike. 

Carolyn Chuang

Marketing & Sales Director

For as long as she can remember, Carolyn has always loved stationery and sending snail mail to connect with friends and family. You can usually find her at a farmers market, dancing, trying new recipes, or going on mini-adventures with her husband and young daughter. A native Michigander, she now calls Burbank home.

Hannah Lim

Retail & Fulfillment Associate

A lover of plants, coffee, baking, and children's books. In addition to Sidebloom and her day job as a higher education professional, she spends her free time learning German, doing yoga, exploring local cafes, and playing with her two (soon-to-be three!) nieces and nephews.

Delaney Bromberek

Retail & Fulfillment Associate

Always up for an adventure, Delaney loves being out in nature and taking her pug, Luna, on hikes. When she's not crocheting while watching Gilmore Girls or an 80's horror movie, her happy place is exploring new places off the beaten path, sipping coffee or thrifting.
