Hello friends,

Welcome to Catalyst Consignment, my name is Cortina Whitmore. I opened Catalyst Consignment Boutique Labor Day weekend 2020. My diverse work experience over the years from retail store manager to executive assistant at Youth Arts Collective to my new role as the treasurer on the Board of the Youth Arts Collective helped provide me with the knowledge & confidence to open my own consignment store.

Consignment stores are truly a win/win/win for everyone involved. Consignors are able to clean out their closets and make a little money in the process, the boutique receives diverse inventory and shoppers are able to purchase items at an affordable price and reduce their carbon footprint at the same time.
