Sweatpants & Coffee Roll Call: Meet the Staff
In case you were curious about the faces behind the stories at Sweatpants & Coffee, we’d like to introduce you to some of the occupants of the internet’s coziest blanket fort.
Our editorial team is a diverse group of caffeinated women who work tirelessly, often in our pajamas, to keep Sweatpants & Coffee running. And the writers? We’d be nothing without them. Note: this is not by a long shot the entire Sweatpants & Coffee team, just the ones we could get to give us pictures.
Nanea Hoffman
Editor in Chief
CEO, Sweatpants And Coffee, LLC
Nanea is the founder of Sweatpants & Coffee and the original Anxiety Blob. Her team cherishes her words of wisdom (which she claims is really just her own neurotic inner dialogue). She feels extremely fortunate to have created the community she never knew she’d always needed.
Shandle Blaha
Director of Operations
Partner, Sweatpants And Coffee, LLC
If Team Sweatpants & Coffee were a soccer team, Shandle would be the mom with the schedule, the orange slices, and the first aid kit. She is incredibly organized, Type A in a good way, and keeps everyone on their toes and in line. She’s also a much needed emotional support and virtual hug supplier.
Emily Parker
Director of Web Development & Marketing
Partner, Sweatpants And Coffee, LLC
Emily is the goddess of all things technical for Sweatpants & Coffee. The staff describe her as “scary smart” and also the kindest, most optimistic soul of the bunch. Her knowledge and expertise are an invaluable resource, but even better is her wit, talent, and compassion.
Jessica Hancock
Director of Reviews & Vendor Relations
Partner, Sweatpants And Coffee, LLC
Jessica is a relationship builder in the truest sense. When she’s not producing thoughtful product reviews or working with affiliates, she’s volunteering to help with EVERYTHING. She’s that friend. Descriptions of her include “fireball” and “soul sister.”
Kathy Kitzmiller
Director of Branding & Product Development
Partner, Sweatpants And Coffee, LLC
Kathy is the creative genius who manages the Sweatpants & Coffee brand and brings you such magical gifts as the Treat Yo Self Tote. She is ridiculously stylish even (especially) while wrangling her four children.
