About Some of Us

AUDREY,  the founder and owner of Some of Us Notecards, LLC is a native New Yorker, a writer and, essentially, a lover of all things paper.  Audrey started collecting stationery and stickers in elementary school, and writing anchored her passion for reading everything from canonical works to fanfiction.  Audrey spent a blissful ten years of undergraduate and graduate study at Rutgers, University of Maryland and Yale, moonlighting along the way as a freelance book reviewer and theater critic. 

                                                                 Some of Us Notecards was founded on a very cold winter morning on Martha's                                                                                           Vineyard, as Audrey and her daughters imagined ways to bottle the beauty of every                                                                                 season on the Island. Some of Us Cards is the culmination of a life-long love of                                                                                           capturing joy on paper, combined with an appreciation of joyful images that                                                                                               highlight women of color.  

                                                                  Audrey's dream is to create beautiful notecards that are locally made, environmentally                                                                            responsible, and sensitive to the price points, desires and needs of historically minoritized                                                                      populations, including women, people of color, and all gender and love iterations. Since it's                                                                   founding in 2022, Some of Us Notecards has sold over 12,000 cards.

After an unexpected breast cancer diagnosis, Audrey took a year off; she relaunched in 2025, earning a nomination and ultimately winning the 2025 Greeting Card of the Year Award from the International Greeting Card Association ("Celebrating Black Culture" category).​ To date, Some of Us Notecards are available in bookshops, gift shops and boutiques  all around the US, with many custom designs sold all around the island of  Martha's Vineyard, her home away from home. And as often as possible, she tries to connect with each and every one of the amazing folks who carry her cards.

Audrey loves drinking hot coffee on the beach mid-winter, reading the New Yorker on Sunday mornings, and spending fall weekends in the Berkshire mountains with her teen daughters and her mini-poodle, Anderson Cooper.
