Jessica Abouelela

Pune, India

Hi there! My name is Jessica Dionne Abouelela. I'm a wannabe baker, a bicycle addict, a former fashion designer gone rogue, and a restless wanderer. I also watch over this little gem called Pen Name Publishing.

I am the founder of The Common Thread Collective. I believe a needle and thread can empower women and that we can challenge the way clothes are manufactured.

I was born and Raised in Indiana, and then I packed my suitcase. I've lived in five states and three continents. The world is my oyster, so I'm making pearls.
