Early life

Jansen-Nichols was born in Providence, Rhode Island and now resides in Atlanta, Georgia.

Career

She launched her own company, Jansen Advertising.[1][2][3] in 1993. She has been acknowledged by various business groups for her contribution to the advertising field, including the Atlanta Business Chronicle.[4]

In March 2007, Paige Jansen-Nichols created the jewelry line, Saint Vintage after being diagnosed with two unrelated types of cancer.[5] As a cancer survivor, she has dedicated her mission to fund cancer research, which is Saint Vintage's primary goal. The Saint Vintage jewelry collections are historically inspired.[6][7]

In February 2015, Jansen-Nichols presented actress and cancer survivor advocate Christina Applegate, with the first annual “Saint Vintage Love Cures Award” at the 2nd Annual unite4:humanity Event hosted by Variety Magazine.[8][9] Paige Jansen-Nichols works with nonprofit organizations such as CURE Childhood Cancer[10] and Stand Up to Cancer[11] each year to donate to cancer research.

Jansen-Nichols was covered on Extra in January 2014 for her design aesthetic and dedication to giving back to cancer research.[12] [13] [14] [15]

In 2005, Paige Jansen-Nichols began anticipating ownership of her favorite childhood collectible – the Dream Pets. She watched and waited after Big Lots purchased and made the decision to liquidate the remaining inventory. Paige knew her dream could become a reality if she could just be patient and attentive. By 2014, the waiting was finally over and she immediately moved forward to acquire the brand. Paige as a child had been inspired to create her Dream Pets larger, softer and more durable – so they could better withstand the love and imagination of children. But her Dream Pets continue the whimsy and uniqueness of R. Dakin’s original designs and handmade feel.
