As third generation in her family’s printing company, she grew up learning the ins and outs of ink, paper and patterns.

Elizabeth cultivated her entrepreneurial spirit over the past ten years of work, study and travel. Moving several times during this period also created an excitement to decorate and make each new space she lived in her own.

Manufactured in the United States (Milwaukee, WI), Chasing Paper is printed on a high-quality removable fabric, backed with a low tack adhesive and sold in panels measuring 2 feet by 4 feet. The brand also offers wall stickers and growth charts for a youthful, fun décor for your wall. In late 2017, the brand launched a collection of thoughtfully curated and affordable oversized grand format prints called Print Shop. Partnering with a select group of artists, such as Elizabeth Olwen and Emma Darvick among others, Chasing Paper created a cool and effortless collection of prints that will feel perfectly at home in any space you choose. From a dose of inspiration above your desk to a greeting at your entryway, these prints will inspire the everyday emotions – from calm to joy – and style of your life. Today, Chasing Paper has collaborated with numerous designers, artists and brands, including ban.do, Lisa Congdon, Molly Hatch, Rebecca Atwood, Soludos, Ashley Goldberg, Nickelodeon and many more. The brand is sold at retailers including West Elm and Urban Outfitters. Elizabeth holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in Journalism from Indiana University and a Master of Arts from the American University of Paris.
