About Me

Kristin Kreuk and Kendra Voth believe in creating a place where girls world wide can come together to explore, express and create! Come and play with us as we build this new idea!

Target Demographic is 14 to 19(ish) but we encourage the support of those who are in line with our mission and values.

Girls By Design values compassion, honesty, integrity, kindness and mindfulness in everything we do.

Favorite Quotes

“As human beings, our greatness lies not so much in being able to remake the world-that is the myth of the atomic age- as in being able to remake ourselves.”—Gandhi

“We cannot teach people anything; we can only help them discover it within themselves.”-Galileo Galilei

“ Working together, ordinary people can perform extraordinary feats. They can push things that come into their hands a little higher up, towards the heights of excellence.” –B.J. Marshalll

“He who would learn to fly one day must first learn to stand and walk and run and climb and dance; one cannot fly into flying.” –Friedrich Nietzsche

“We are volcanoes. When we women offer our experience as our truth, as human truth, all the maps change. There are now mountains.” –Ursula K. LeGuin
