The brand is named Otto because that is the last name of the people that have impacted my life in so many positive ways. My Popsi & Grammi. I lost both of them not long ago to Cancer & Alzheimer’s, and I miss and love them so much, and they were always so supportive in everything I did. I wanted to carry their name along with something I really loved and cared about, and knew they would love too. So @ottobykris was born.

I will be donating part of my own proceeds to The Alzheimer’s Association and The American Cancer Society to help support and help find a cure for these horrific diseases that took my grandparents and many others loved ones too soon.
