Welcome to Pat&Lily!

Hello!  Please allow me to introduce myself on this first blog post.  I am Jennifer Cuasay Waldinger, the owner and founder of Pat&Lily.

After a 30-year career that included leadership roles in government, and public sector consulting and sales, I'm thrilled to announce the launch of Pat&Lily—an online boutique featuring ethically sourced women’s clothing and accessories. This venture marks a significant departure from my professional background as I step outside my comfort zone, but I'm excited to start this new chapter!

Pat&Lily honors the legacies of my great-aunt, Patria "Pat" Moorhouse, and grandmother, Cirila "Lily" Cuasay, Filipino immigrants who established successful seamstress businesses in the United States. Their dedication to their craft, unwavering work ethic, and selfless spirit are the inspiration behind the boutique.

Pat&Lily is proud to contribute 15% of its profits to Springfield Memorial Rehab Services’ Rock Steady Boxing, an affiliate of the nationwide program empowering individuals with Parkinson’s disease. As a person living with Parkinson’s, I began attending Rock Steady Boxing classes in 2018 and have personally experienced the transformative power of the program. It inspired me to take a proactive approach to managing the disease and help slow its progression. It is my hope that Pat&Lily will help increase awareness of Rock Steady Boxing nationwide and provide encouragement to others living with Parkinson’s.

Thank you for visiting our online boutique. Please explore our curated collection and help us make a difference by shopping with purpose at Pat&Lily.

With gratitude,

Jennifer Cuasay Waldinger, Owner and Founder
