The Story Behind the Name

If you know me, you know the meaning of the number 27 in my life. If you don’t, allow me to fill you in…

As a young athlete, I decided that I wanted 27 to be the number of my jersey for the rest of my career. It was a combination of my birthdate. July 21st. On the travel team I played with as a young teenager, I asked for the number 7. It was already taken. I asked for the number 21, it was already taken. So, me, not being a quitter, I combined the two options together as 27 and signed the deal. From that point on, I fell in love with the number and fought tooth and nail on every team after that to get 27 on the back of my jersey. If I had an option to take this number, I was going to take it.

Call it superstition, call it luck, but I always felt that the number 27 being on my back allowed me to be my best self. It was my brand. My image. Without it, there is always something that felt like it was missing. I carried this number with me through my early adult years. And to this day, throughout my continued softball career, you rarely catch me without a bold 27 plastered under my name.

In the same way, I felt it fitting to incorporate this number into my business venture. As a young child, I had always dreamed of working for myself. This project is my hopes of making that a reality. And, true to form, I do my best work under the number 27. And I am determined that this will be no different.
