About Lillie

I grew up in Massachusetts with a younger brother and lots of cousins nearby.

My mom is a retired public school art teacher, and my dad is a luthier – a person who makes bows for stringed instruments like violins. We visit and talk often with my parents. My favorite childhood memories are at my grandma’s lake cabin in Maine. I studied Art History and French at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, and then moved to California to explore the world. You’ll often find me reading a good book, enjoying my morning coffee, or working on a new art project.

I love getting to enjoy the magic of both summer and winter during visits to New England. As a parent, I’m excited to share in slow walks, lots of storybooks, and family road trips.

Lillie has worked for years as a marketing & communications professional. She was also trained as an elementary school teacher, and she’s fascinated by how children learn and grow.

About Mischa

I was raised in the Redwoods of California with four siblings and lots of forest trails to explore.

My parents were both professional musicians who taught us the power of creativity and practice. My mom is also an awesome vegetable and flower gardener. One highlight from growing up was the summer camp that I attended and worked at; we still visit there every year with dear friends! After high school, I went to Chapman University in Southern California and began my journey as a filmmaker. I love being outdoors and getting active, and you’ll often find me running, biking, surfing, fishing, river rafting, and hiking.

As a parent, I love sharing my enthusiasm for music, family camping trips, and outdoor adventures with Felix, and I look forward to sharing all of this with an additional little one.

Mischa produces documentary films and runs a creative agency, where he consults with values-driven businesses and organizations.

Meet Felix

Born in 2024, Felix joined our family through an open adoption. He’s a delightful little guy who loves books, trucks, helping with kitchen projects, and getting outside. Seeing Felix play with his friends and cousins, we know he’ll be a great big brother.

Our Home and Community

We love our little home! We have great, friendly neighbors and are within walking distance of parks, shops, schools, restaurants, and so much more.

Sonoma County has lots of outdoor places to explore, and the ocean is just a short drive from us! We’re members of a local farm that supplies us with lots of veggies and herbs for home-cooked meals. We regularly host friends for weeknight dinners in our backyard filled with good food and laughter. Throughout the year, we spend time in both California and New England, visiting with our families in our hometowns. We especially enjoy gathering with our loved ones around the holidays and sharing our family traditions.

Our Family & Friends

Our extended family—including our dearest friends—are a really important part of our life. We’re close with both our sets of parents and our siblings, plus a whole bunch of aunts, uncles, and cousins. This includes a growing number of young kids, too! Between both sides of our family, there are 12 little cousins now, and our very closest friends have young children too.

Our family is excited to welcome a new friend and family member!

We’re grateful for the opportunity to be a part of your journey.
