Owner Ashlee Takamura was born and raised in Hawaii. She studied graphic design and studio art at the University of Hawaii, and then continued on to California College of the Arts to study illustration. She spent over a decade working in San Francisco, designing and guiding clients through the process of choosing their dream wedding invitations and personalized stationery. Through her years creating custom stationery, she has developed wonderful relationships with printers and designers in the industry. In 2018, Ashlee moved back home to Hawaii and opened The Writing Desk.
