About

The Full Story

Hey everyone, I, Jazelle Mendoza, established FOUND. A little bit about me... I am the oldest of 9 siblings, I very much enjoy being outdoors with my adventure partner and our two dogs, and I love cute yellow baby ducks. I have a bachelor's degree in interior design and graphic design along with some background knowledge in architecture and business, and I absolutely love being creative and hands-on. 

FOUND's backstory is a personal story to me that I have decided to share with you all because I strongly believe that transparency is key! Growing up...my mom was a single mom of 4 girls at the age of 27 and seeing that she gave us the best life she could at that time, made me admire her so much more for that. So I decided to do the same but for everyone out there who is trying to make their lifestyle luxurious without spending too much. I really do enjoy helping people in any way that I can and that's when I decided to come up with FOUND!

Transformation is a beautiful process which is why FOUND's purpose solely focuses on transforming materials whose purpose has been diminished into something valuable, purposeful, and affordable! Upcycling is a form of sustainability that benefits the economy by decreasing the amount of waste and air pollution through cities. FOUND wants those to experience the feeling of living in a high-end luxurious lifestyle while acknowledging that they have purchased an affordable, upcycled, and sustainable product(s). The purpose of the products will make a home more cherishable and to give a home a sense of belonging . In addition to that, FOUND will slowly release natural facial and body scrubs for that fresh, smooth, and hydrated skin along with slowly bringing back simple-looking candles to enhance that cozy feeling of just being safe and at home. FOUND also has services where we will home stage our own products, if requested, along with providing the option to put in requests to have a product be customized to a person's liking, and offer workshops!
