About the owner

Hi, my name is Niki Galiano, and I'm the inventor and owner of Billboard Barrettes. I grew up in Omaha, and went to college at the University of Kanas, but I currently live in the Phoenix, Arizona metro area.

Years ago, I used to make my own fashion barrettes, and I also sold a few of them here and there online. Then, in March 2025, I came up with the idea for Billboard Barrettes. I made a few prototypes, sent in the provisional patent to the US patent office, and a business was born!

I currently make all the barrettes by hand myself, but if business starts to boom, I'll be hiring more people to help me. But they will always be made right here in the U.S.A.
