Store Manager, Creative Director, and Curator
Tayler, also known as Kamama, is an enrolled member of the Cherokee Nation of Oklahoma. She is a beader and multi-medium artist with a strong eye for design and a passion for cultural storytelling. Tayler shapes the visual identity and creative direction of the boutique bringing experience in art curation, media art, fashion design, hospitality and cultural education, ensuring every element of the Tradish experience is intentional, inspiring, and rooted in Indigenous expression with contemporary style. Tayler grew up in the Skagit Valley North of Seattle. As she grew older she became interested in reconnecting with her Cherokee roots, eventually relocating to Oklahoma for a time. Her deepening connection to Native art and culture led to her pursuing a fine arts degree at the Institute of American Indian Arts in Santa Fe. She and Autumn currently live in West Seattle and raise three beautiful niblings together.
