Barrett Prendergast is the founder of the luxury gifting and floral design company, Valleybrink Road. After getting her foot in the door of the food world by working in a restaurant kitchen, Barrett started her own catering business named after the street she lived on, Valleybrink Road, and in a way, fell into the gifting business by accident. Barrett started helping friends in the film industry put together thoughtful gift boxes for their clients and soon found herself driving all over Los Angeles making gift box deliveries for her own clients and responding to dozens of daily Instagram DMs to sell her boxes. Today, Valleybrink Road gifts can be bought online and shipped across the country and the brand has been featured in publications such as Martha Stewart, Marie Claire, Sunset Magazine, Food & Wine, and Goop. While she stopped catering a few years ago as the gifting business grew, Barrett is style passionate about cooking and sharing the ingredients of her life and just launched a new lifestyle and food blog Barrett and the Boys.
