About our designer
Jordan Autumn Rhodes, founder and designer of Carried by Cardinal, was born in Grand Rapids, Michigan, and carries with her the spirit of her Southern heritage, inspired deeply by her grandparents, Thelma and Jewel Rhodes. Their unwavering belief in her creative talent nurtured both her love for design and her entrepreneurial spirit. “I was nine years old when I realized I wanted to be a fashion designer,” Jordan recalls. “Watching fashion reality shows with my older sisters, I discovered not just what I wanted to do but who I wanted to become.”
