With a career built in the luxury fashion world, Bridget brings an eye for design and a deep appreciation for craftsmanship to everything she does. Raised in Northern Virginia by an Italian immigrant family with a history of entrepreneurship, Bridget and her co-owner Rosio are committed to carrying on the spirit of She’s Unique that was created by founder Katya Ananieva.

Bridget’s aesthetic is a mix of layered neutrals (yes, including animal print) and playful boldness. Her goal? To continue curating a space where every woman can discover the jewelry that makes her feel confident and stylish, and to bring the legacy of She’s Unique to a new audience of women who love fashion and style. 

Two weeks after college graduation I moved from Cincinnati, OH to Washington, DC to work on Capitol Hill. I later transitioned to The White House, where I met a colleague who eventually started her own boutique.  Years later we reconnected when she opened another location in my neighborhood. I started working with her part time. I loved how I could spend my days in the office and escape afterwards to work with beautiful clothes and accessories.

That same friend connected me with She’s Unique. It is such a special place. There’s something for everybody. Helping people find pieces that make them feel good is so rewarding.

One of my favorite designers we carry is Lulu.  The intricate designs and natural gemstones are a magical combination.

When I’m not at She’s Unique, I work as a Leadership Development and Event Management Consultant.  

I live in Alexandria, Virginia with my husband of fifteen years and three children.  Our nights and weekends are spent on the ballfields and in dance studios, but we wouldn’t have it any other way.  When we aren’t chasing our kids around, we love hanging out at home with our dog and guinea pigs. 

I’m originally from Ukraine and have lived in the U.S. on and off for over a decade. My family and I have moved quite a bit over the years—through my husband’s diplomatic work Now, we’re happily settled in the DC metro area.

I’ve been working in the jewelry industry for over eight years, with past roles at Zales, Helzberg Diamonds, and David Yurman. I hold a DCA (Diamond Council of America) certification and specialize in both permanent jewelry and custom jewelry making.

What I love most about working at She’s Unique is connecting with our customers and helping them discover pieces that feel personal and special. It’s incredibly fulfilling to work with independent brands from around the world.

I’m especially drawn to our dainty fine jewelry with diamonds and gemstones. I love the nature-inspired 18K designs by Alex Monroe and the handmade gemstone necklaces by Lulu Designs from California.

I’d describe my personal style as classic and minimal, with a playful twist. I gravitate toward timeless, fine jewelry staples that I can wear every day. I also like to add a bit of fun and have multiple piercings and love experimenting with different earring combinations.
