Welcome to The Style Underdog.
This is a space I’ve been thinking about in the back of my mind for a long time. A space for the many paths of creativity I’ve traveled to meet and shake hands, and continue moving forward to hopefully change the rhetoric of what it means to walk ahead. It’s taken me nearly ten years to finally step on the other side of fear and offer my voice to a world I’m still getting to know—the world of architecture and interiors. I’m not going to pretend my start was ever clear cut. In fact, I joke the only reason I’m here is because I landed a good retail job on Craigslist.com a bunch of years ago. And while that is 100% true, I stayed because I finally found a language that was tactile and tangible enough that made me feel like I was enough. So, hey. My name is Elizabeth Tobin. I’m a writer trained as a poet who was a former designer and is now working as a Project Manager for an awesome interior design firm based out of New England. What I hope this space will become is a space for the underdogs. Having not walked a linear path into the world of design, I’m inspired by stories who’ve walked just the same. I hope to highlight the movers and shakers of this vast and inspiring industry, surprising art and exhibitions, as well as commentary on culture to all who are underdogs themselves seeking to be seen. I’m so happy to have you.
