Artist and designer Elana Joelle Hendler is the CEO and founder of EJH Brand, a luxury lifestyle brand and home decor company in Los Angeles. In addition to locally designed and manufactured items like candles, stationary and wildlife throw pillows, the brand features Elana’s own animal print art.
“When I founded EJH, it was at a time in my life when I made the decision that I wanted to really put myself out there and discover what I was made of,” Elana says. “I knew I wanted to start a business and use my artwork as the foundation.”
As a Millennial entrepreneur, Elana has found she’s able to make use of all her strengths while she grows and develops new skills. Sure, it can make for a hectic schedule, but most importantly, it offers work Elana’s passionate about and invested in. Millennial or not, those are two qualities that endure.
