The Tinker Guy

Tyler

Tyler is a founding member and creator at The Gracewell Studio. An entrepreneur at heart, learning the rhythms of business as we build and expand this dream together.

He is a neurodivergent soul who thinks in colors, connections, and constellations. Tyler sees the world with curiosity and wonder. He is the kind of person who carries a quiet glow with him, the kind that makes people feel lighter just by being near. He is a lover of music, a natural comedian, and my favorite karaoke partner. His humor has a way of brightening any day, and his kindness runs deep.
Behind the scenes, Tyler is involved in every creative endeavor, from shaping ideas to helping develop social media content to supporting the digital foundation of the studio. His presence is woven into the Gracewell vision in ways both seen and felt.
Most importantly, he is my son, and I am profoundly proud of the person he is and the future he is creating. Every Tinker Cube and every idea that comes from his heart is shaped by lived experience, thoughtfulness, and a desire to help people feel more at ease in their own skin.

Photographer and Artist

Gabriela

Gabriela is a Puerto Rican NY based multi faceted artist and space creator whose work moves between photography, video, painting, intuitive meditation, and movement. Everything she creates is guided by one intention: to help others reconnect with their own creativity and life force.
Her path and passion for learning are as expansive as her art. She studied Photography and Related Media at FIT, traveled to Japan to immerse herself in the culture while leading workshops at Moriumius AIR, and continued her growth in Ecuador at Durgas Tiger School where she explored yoga, Tantra, and shamanic practices that connected her more deeply to her ancestral lineages.
Gabriela paints and films in moments of pure presence, capturing the stillness, wildness, and wonder of nature. When she works with others, whether one on one or in group settings, she creates a container where people can return to themselves, explore their own essence, and discover creativity as a path toward healing.
Her eye, her warmth, and her presence are woven through so many of the images you see on this site. She is the photographer who helped translate the heart of Gracewell into visuals: soft, lived in moments, handmade textures, honest joy, and that quiet spark of becoming.
Her artistry does not just document Gracewell, it amplifies it. Through her lens, the handmade becomes sacred, the everyday becomes luminous, and the stories behind each piece find a voice.

Creator of The Heritage Line

Monina

There are artists who create clothing, and then there are artists who create worlds. My mother, Monina, belongs to the second group. Monina is the creative matriarch of our family and a Puerto Rican fashion designer whose work has shaped generations. The Puerto Rican fashion scene honored her designs for decades, her work was showcased in shows and competitions throughout Puerto Rico. Today, Monina brings her lifetime of experience and passion for design into her one of a kind upcycled bags, transforming upcycled materials into pieces of wearable art. The Heritage line reflects a lifetime of mastery shaped by the eye of a seasoned designer, and the heart of a woman who has always believed that fashion can be meaningful, expressive, and deeply personal. We are honored to share her creations and her legacy here at The Gracewell Studio.
