Meet the Team

Jessica Purdie, 29, Founder & Creative Director

“I’m technically an entrepreneur but I’m uneasy of that word. I believe that a workplace should be playground for creatives to flurrish and have worked on building an environment that I feel that I don’t want to leave and hope that my colleagues enjoy it as much as I do. SO much so, that I don’t leave work and if there was a one-bed flat above the shop available, it would be mine.

I am happiest when I’m in work (lol), on top of a mountain hiking or listening to live music and when I’m performing either in a band or solo. I don’t like to feel bored so cannot spend a day infront of a TV.

In my spare time, I like to edit my website, find new places for hikes and restaurants/cafes to eat at or discover new artists/playlists. I make sure to update my adventures on social media as I really enjoy updating my stories like a diary for all to laugh at.”

I’ve just started this new venture as a Creative Coordinator at Prikli Pear and I’m super excited to get my teeth into this new role and help the shop grow and expand.
