Today we connect with Trista Jablonski, the new owner of To and From Gifts, 5535 Sixth Avenue. Trista tells us all about her early days growing up in Kenosha – attending Indian Trail Academy during one of the darkest periods in Kenosha High School history, why she left Kenosha for a few years to pursue a career in youth ministry, and why she returned to her hometown and decided to, with zero retail experience, buy To and From Gift Shop in Downtown Kenosha and make it her own!

Trista and her husband are double dippers when it comes to local businesses, she helps out her husband with his business – Reliant Home Services, check them out if you are in the need of handyman repair work!
