Jess Fiedler was raised in Avalon, California, on Catalina Island. Growing up on the island was a unique experience. Her favorite view on the island (and so far, in the world) is that of Shark Harbor, at sunset. That is the inspiration for her company’s name. She’s since lived all over California, including in the Sierras, the Santa Cruz Mountains, and Naples Island. Beauty and Nature are important to her. She earned her Bachelor’s in Philosophy, with a minor in Religious Studies. So, asking the deeper questions in life, and about life, are integral to her personality.

She originally started her website, Shark Harbor Sunset, as a way to express herself, and share with others (especially her children), a part of herself. As the work progressed, she found herself more and more drawn to others’ stories, and lives, and hopes, and dreams. Shark Harbor Sunset’s mission has grown as a result. The site is there to not only allow her own self-expression, but also to serve as a platform for real stories to be shared with the world. If you have a dream or cause you’d like to share, please reach out! She loves to write and share her passions, fears, and hope.

Mission Statement: To connect with others, and to connect others.
