'Who is Mimi?' And why 'By the Sea?'

'Mimi' is a term that can mean Grandmother and I named Mimi by the Sea in the spirit of my own Grandmother Mona Jamison a local businesswoman who loved days out in Newcastle by the Sea and was an inspiration to me everyday.
My reason for creating Mimi by the Sea: Gift - Home - Dream is about legacy, love and supporting the creative journey. 
In life there shouldn't be opportunities missed but endeavours tried.
