Katie Tellor, Owner You aren’t originally from Texas. What’s the Texas part of you and the Minnesota part of you that you will bring into Abstra(kt) Studio? Where I come from, work ethic is a core value. People are hard working and believe that when they put their name on something they better back it up. I’m proud of that belief system. I’m also pretty proud of the fact that my education was begun at the Aveda Institute that was started in Minneapolis by Horst Rechelbecher
