• More than 2 million miles of airline travel as a physician, pharmaceutical executive, and genetic scientist.
• More hours than I care to think about in airports around the world.
• Turning 50 (ouch!)
• Muscle spasms after each business trip from carrying my laptop in a beautiful briefcase that looked great but killed my shoulder and back.
• Giving up my pride to carry a backpack.
After spending two years searching unsuccessfully for a backpack/briefcase that would allow me to carry my laptop comfortably without looking like a turtle, I decided to invent one. Penelope was born.
Penelope is committed to delivering great products that fuse fashion and function. Penelope is also committed to enabling women of all ages to realize their potential, regardless of their education or their need to balance career and family life.
