About Us

AMM Essentials was started in 2023. We are a small business who pride ourselves on creating self-care products that make our customers feel like their best selves. We create all of our products in small batches with specific attention to detail so that each product is as close to perfection as possible. 

About the Owner

Hello! My name is Ariella, and I am the owner and creator behind AMM Essentials! I am a graduate student, studying to be an Occupational Therapist. I am from and create our products in Western Massachusetts. I started making body care products and candles in 2020 as a result of quarantine boredom but decided to take a leap (of faith lol) into the small business world at the beginning of 2023. 

As a full-time student with 2 other part-time jobs, AMM Essentials is my creative outlet that allows me to ground myself in times of stress. I find so much joy in making products that I love, and it makes me even happier knowing that other people love them just as much as I do. I have been so passionate about self-care ever since COVID hit, and AMM Essentials has helped me share this passion with so many other people! 

Being a small business owner is no joke! I am still brand new to this world and learning as I go. I am so thankful to all the kind people who have helped me along the way, and to those who will help me in the future! I am having so much fun on this journey and I am excited to see what it evolves into :) I hope you follow along with me as I create new products and perfect formulations so that we can all use products that we love and that promote self-care!

As I mentioned, I am a full-time student studying for my degree in Occupational Therapy. I graduated in May of 2023 and began classes for my Masters degree the same month! I absolutely love the field I am entering, and I cannot wait to begin practicing as a clinician. When I am not studying, I am spending time with my friends and family, or working one of my other jobs. I find myself being pretty busy, but my amazing boyfriend is always there to help me out. He is a major part of the behind-the-scenes work of AMM Essentials, too! Together, we love traveling, going to Boston Bruins games, playing with our pups, Remi and Tucker, and cooking. 

 

Thanks for getting to know a little bit about me :)
