Claudia Lowe is founder and CEO of Claudia Marie Design. Her clients and customers reveal that she is a creative visionary who is able to see the dream they have and mentor them to make it happen. In her early years Claudia learned her baking, confectionary, and chocolate skills under the tutelage of her mother, Nicole Striegl, known as the Elegant Gourmet. Upon starting college, she set that all aside to pursue a psychology degree and then started a family, and business, with her husband of 31 years (and counting!!). With three sons in tow she pursued several successful business pursuits in counseling, family dynamics, childbirth education, and child advocacy. Over the years, Claudia has… had the distinct pleasure of mentoring, coaching, supporting, and advising thousands of families including women wanting to start their own businesses. She completed law school in 2004 as her sons were graduating from high school, entering college, and starting their own lives as young adults. The creative vision of Claudia Marie Design started to take shape so she returned to her Elegant Gourmet roots to start Claudia Marie Design, a company about chocolate, chocolate-infused events, easy elegance, and women entrepreneurs.
