We're celebrating remarkable women in the worlds of food and design throughout Women Are Amazing Month (aka Women's History Month, Food52-style). Is there a woman we should be profiling? Let us know.


Shay Carrillo is the founding partner and chief creative officer of Portland, Oregon-based linen brand MADRE. With the help of her talented team, she designs timeless, beautiful linens that brighten any occasion. Recently, we caught up with Shay to learn more about her design process, why MADRE is "for everyone," and how being a mother influences her work.
