About:
After more than a decade in sales, Tate Gunnerson founded Strange Closets
after realizing blogging provided an ideal vehicle to combine his interest in
writing, photography and design. What began as a hobby morphed into a genuine
passion, which prompted Gunnerson to leave sales to focus on building Strange
Closets into a next-generation online home design publication. In addition to
publishing Strange Closets, Gunnerson contributes to Chicago Home + Garden, CS
Interiors and HealthDay.
