About Us

Carolin Kauten

As a pre-teen Carolin was obsessed with her own family history, as only a teenager can be. While her level of obsession has leveled off over the years, it continues to be a subject she can get lost in. The family stories that heirlooms tell, is her passion and could talk about family stories all day. She has developed a career around caring for history and wouldn’t want it any other way. She loves cheese and the Thin Man movies.
