Product Development and Design

"I have worked in the giftware and home decor industries for 30 years, working with licensed and non-licensed properties. I understand the importance of staying true to the identity of a license. My favorite license for which to develop product is Peanuts, followed closely by Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse. These brands were iconic in my childhood, and I want them to continue to acquire new fans through the fun products I bring to the marketplace. Contact me to see if we can work together on your next winning project." ~ Kathleen Rietz
