When you visit Linda at her boutique you might imagine she has been in retail her entire career. Her knowledge for the styles, brands and the latest look certainly backs that notion. Although, she has never worked in retail. It was only recently that she left corporate America.

Many of the skills from her previous career caried over nicely. Listening to employees and solving their problem translates well in the retail space. Often when women walk in the boutique they are unaware of what they are looking for, drawing on her experiences and the inate desire to help others is just one of the many reasons Linda offers impeccable customer service, bringing clients back again and again.

Scout & Molly's hosts a variety of events which include inviting charities to benefit from a day at the boutique. Are you looking for a host venue for a networking event? Scout & Molly's just might be the space! Interested in yoga or self defense? Those are in the works!
