Hello! I'm Jordan. In 2019, before starting my university journey, I founded Tappen Apothecary — not just as a way to help finance my degree but also to share my passion for hand-crafted quality products with others. Every candle from our collection is meticulously hand-crafted by me or by the heart and soul of our operation, my mother, Lee. These candles come to life in the heart of our homes — our kitchens.

In my academic journey, I completed a Bachelor of Commerce program at the University of Victoria, where I specialized in Entrepreneurship. On the other hand, my mom is a retired special education assistant who now volunteers in the community and helps me make and deliver our products. A shared vision binds both of us: to leave a positive imprint on the world, be it through business, philanthropy, or direct community engagement.
