1. What's a goal you recently achieved? We opened a retail space on South Congress!
2. A Few of Anne's favorite things: Food, Wine, Travel with my husband, the beach, my kiddos (three dogs and one cat).
3. What's that about travel? Anne and her husband visit his family in Mexico at least once per year and live in Chicago during the Summer. Throughout the year, you may see them in different cities across America selling Limbo at large festivals, like Pool Tradeshow in Las Vegas.
4. Favorite piece of Limbo Jewelry: Cadena Solo Bracelet, I wear it everyday.
5. Favorite Austin Hangout: I love Elizabeth Street and the San Jose Hotel.
6. What's it like building a business with your husband, Edson? Fun for the most part, challenging sometimes. I couldn't imagine building a business on my own; I truly believe you need your partner in life to build something together. I do want to mention we aren't perfect, we fight like everyone else, but running a business with my spouse makes our relationship stronger because we get to experience more than most together. I love it!

Do what you like, if you love your job you will never work a day in your life. Here are the top reasons I feel Edson and I work well together in building our brand, Limbo Jewelry Design:
1) We have the same goals and aspirations. We want the same things from life. We want a successful company for the freedom to travel, get our foodie kicks at our favorite restaurants and take care of our families.
2) We have a similar work ethic, but our strengths and weaknesses are balanced. We are not afraid of hard work, but when he likes to pull all-nighters, I make us stop, eat and sleep. He's great at details and I am able to look at the big picture.
3)We say please and thank you. Not always, but often. Nobody likes to feel under-appreciated, I always try and acknowledge his hard work and talent.
4) We don't allow any work talk at the dinner table. It's not always possible, but it is important to just be home when you are home.
5) I put EVERYTHING on our sync-ed Google Calendar with reminders, this way every morning we know exactly what needs to go down for appointments & deadlines to happen and be met.
6) We laugh together - how serious can this all be?
