About Kay
Hi, I’m Kay—the founder and maker behind Kay’s Organics in St. Louis, Missouri. I’m a Registered Nurse (BSN) and Certified Herbalist, with more than 20 years of experience in Emergency Medicine. My work has taught me the importance of trust, thoughtful choices, and showing up with care.
I’m also pursuing certification in Holistic Nursing as I continue learning how to bring my healthcare experience and interest in plant traditions together. Kay’s Organics is where I share that care through small-batch botanical products, made by hand with intention.
From the Garden to Kay’s Organics
Outside of work, I found peace in the garden—growing herbs, learning about their traditional uses, and drying and infusing botanicals at my kitchen table. During the COVID pandemic, I began making sugar scrubs for fellow ER staff: small comforts after long shifts. That simple act of care grew into Kay’s Organics.
I make products in small batches, by hand, choosing herbs, oils, butters, and essential oils from trusted, ethical sources. Many of the botanicals I use are garden-grown by me; for others, I look to small local businesses that share my values. I want each product to reflect the care, intention, and respect for ingredients that first inspired this work.
My Mission
To create clean, thoughtfully crafted products that support self-care and recovery through honest ingredients, ethical sourcing, and simple herbal traditions—always made with care, never shortcuts.

Keeping it Real
Thank You for Being Here
My journey is far from over. I’ll continue learning, growing, and sharing what I learn with others. If something I create or teach helps one person feel more confident or more connected to their own well-being, then I’ve accomplished what I set out to do.
Thank you for allowing me to be part of your wellness journey. Caring for yourself isn’t a luxury. It’s one of the most important investments you’ll ever make.
