Meet the team
Stacey Williams, founder
Stacey is the writer and artist behind The Southern Gothic Oracle, the deck that launched the company. She is a former design instructor and children’s book illustrator, and is a frequent speaker on topics of design and art-making.
Ken Ng
Ken is our co-founder, and head of operations and customer service. All those packages you ordered? Ken packed 'em. And he's most likely the one who filed all the taxes and straightened up the Google Drive. Just don't ask him to read your cards.
Weslyn Newburn
Weslyn is La Panthère's social media vixen and resident witchcraft + tarot expert. When she's not cooking up prosperity spells or drinking her signature black coffee, she's probably writing those blog posts you love so much, or shooting aesthetic reels.
