Meet the Snob Team!

Our family has grown since we started in 2005 and you probably know them all by name and post now but we thought you should meet them, face to face. We would not be able to handle all that is involved with running our network of blogs without our girls (and boy!).

Veterans of the entertainment and fashion industries (Tina– a former MTV Asia VJ and jewelry designer, Kelly– former right-hand woman to designer Mark Eisen), the Bag Snobs have been collecting designer bags for over 20 years.  BFFs since meeting at USC, we immediately bonded over a shared passion for Prada bags.  Bagsnob.com was created as a way for us to converse about our obsession for bags; we blogged while our newborns napped and it kept us sane when they didn’t.  Blogging was our entertainment and we had no idea that one day, thousands of women around the world would join in our conversation.

Richard Cook, CFO and Chief Tech Nerd (AKA Kelly’s

Hubby). Richard is a Software Engineer and is responsible for helping

us get started, he trained us how to upload our entries (no easy task as we both have short

attention spans) and he still maintains our site. He also pays our Bag

Snob bills (with our money but neither Kelly or I can balance a

checkbook to save our lives so we depend on Rich to tell us how much

money we have to spend!) plus he keeps all the ads and artwork on our

sites current. We don’t pay him regularly but the privilege of being

Kelly’s husband is payment enough for him.

When she’s not blogging for the Snob sites, Sharon enjoys jetting to Paris, Morocco and other exotic locales.

Liza Powel O’brien is a frequent contributing blogger on our sites. She has a MFA in fiction writing from Columbia and is totally over qualified for this job!  We have no idea why she agreed to guest blog but are grateful she graces us with her wit and fine writing.

Kerri Loughlin is our LA based assistant.  She brings with her years of administrative experience and we are hoping she will organize our chaotic workload!

Christy Nguyen is assigned the task of market research and will be assisting with social media networking for the Snob sites. She shows promise as a beauty writer being a total beauty snob herself.

Tracy Rosenberg is our cute young intern who keeps us abreast of current trends.  We met her at STK one summer night in LA where she recognized us as the Bag Snobs.  Tracy is from NYC and is currently a sophomore at Univ of Wisconsin.

    Your team is adorable!!!

  2. Tina, I was just thinking about this post last night (you had promised it to us a while ago!). Thanks for giving us some insight into the behind-the-scenes of the wonderful Snob network, it’s good to finally put faces to the names (not that we hadn’t seen your lovely face already!)… You are as gorgeous as ever, T – can’t wait to see your Paris pics!

  3. So lovely to see the Snob Team! I’ve been a big fan of your posts!! Can you please tell me, is there an application to get into Web Snob? Kristopher tells me it’s invite only, but would love to know if you have to have special talent (like cartwheeling, riding circus ponies, or just writing damn fine entries, stat).

    xoxo

  4. I would like to know more about selling this product.
