After dedicating over two decades to the fast-paced, demanding world of corporate America, Adrienne realized that the life she was living was no longer fulfilling. The long hours and relentless stress left little room for creativity or meaningful interaction with people, two things she deeply valued. It was during a rare moment of quiet reflection that the idea for M2C1 Designs began to take shape.

Adrienne’s journey into the unknown was fueled by a powerful motivator: her son, Nicholas. As a single mother, she wanted to be there for him, not just in fleeting moments between meetings and deadlines, but truly present as he grew and experienced life. She envisioned a life where she could nurture her creativity and innovation while being an active participant in Nicholas's upbringing.

And so, M2C1 Designs was born in the heart of Los Angeles, California. The business quickly became a manifestation of Adrienne’s passions and values. Each piece she created, from magnetic art that celebrates special occasions to practical items that assist emergency services, was crafted with love and a deep sense of purpose.

During the startup phase of M2C1 Designs, Adrienne made a groundbreaking discovery: a process for engraving powder-coated tumblers without the use of a laser. This innovation was so significant that it changed the industry forever. Recognizing the potential impact, she submitted the process to the US Patent Office, and it is now pending approval.

Adrienne’s unique technique exemplifies her inventive spirit and is not just a testament to her skills but also a symbol of the new path she has carved out for herself and Nicholas. M2C1 Designs is more than a business; it's a story of transformation, resilience, and the pursuit of a life that harmonizes professional fulfillment with personal joy. Through her work, Adrienne inspires others to embrace their passions and create lives that reflect their deepest values.
