About Us

There have been many things and people that have inspired me along the way but I’d like you to meet my two main inspirations, Kaelin and Emily.   When I first looked into their eyes, my life changed.  I knew I would no longer live for myself…..I wanted to be with them, be a mom.  My career which was paramount at the time, paled in comparison.  I loved what I did but it wasn’t conducive to being the mother that I wanted to be.  After a lot of thought and an Under the Tuscan Sun later, I left my career as a CPA in San Francisco, as well as cash flow and security and traded it for one of risk and “not so much” cash flow.  I moved back home to the Napa Valley and started St. Helena Olive Oil Co.

I’ve been passionate about the quality of the things that we put into our bodies for the last 15 years.  It’s only recently come to my attention that I have been neglecting what we put onto our bodies.   Frustrated by the lack of integrity in a large part of the cosmetics industry, I decided to start my own bath and body line…much like I did in 1994….focusing on the quality of the ingredients.

Our new brand, Napa Valley Bath Co is inspired by the organic lavender in the Napa Valley….our six months in Italy….and most of all, once again, by my two teens…K and Em.  I am dedicated to them….and you….and promise to produce the highest quality bath and body line so none of us have to worry about soaking it all in!
