About Us

CARRIE BRUSVEN

Owner, Founder + Lead Designer

Carrie entered the boutique rental business in 2012 with a strong desire to create something new and fresh for the event industry in Fargo-Moorhead. Combining a life-long love of design, interiors, craftsmanship, and artistry with a passion for customer service, organization, sustainability, Carrie created Gathered, a company focused on guest experience and creative risk-taking! When not focused on being a girl boss, Carrie loves spending time with her husband and two boys in theater, skiing, camping, and hiking, or by herself crafting, reading, and feeling the sunshine.

KIMBERLY WOODS

Client Relations Manager

Kimberly comes to us with a background in photography, business, and marketing. She is the key player in getting clients quotes and proposals – making sure every order is good to go and everyone has the information they need! She is the glue that holds it all together and keeps it running smoothly! When not corresponding with our clients, posting on social media, or creating gorgeous marketing materials, Kimberly loves spending time with her husband and three kids. During quiet moments you will find her most often reading a good book, while curled up with her two fur-babies and a glass of wine. Traveling, nature and sunshine are also part of what feeds her soul!

ALI FUGLESTAD

Warehouse Manager + Display Assistant

Ali started as one of our very own brides, and quickly fell in love with the company, taking a role as a part time delivery team member. Now she manages our Moorhead warehouse, loads trailers, and is in charge of every item, large and small, going in and out! She also lends her muscle and creative eye to custom builds and creative display projects. She is also our resident expert at reel-making! When not packing, creating, or cleaning, Ali oves spending quality time with her husband, Noah and their daughter, Honor. She is a free spirit and spontaneous, so adventure is always on her agenda and she is down for pretty much anything! Whether it’s creating colorful art, being outside in the sunshine chasing her daughter around, or connecting with the people around her, and at the end of the day, Ali loves seeing those she loves walk in true authenticity and celebrating that within them.

SCOTT BRUSVEN

Lead Builder + Chief Executive Doer of All Things

Scott is our jack of all trades. From building all our custom furniture, to hanging large creations over his head at the mall, to helping keep the operations running, Scott makes sure all Carrie’s dream designs become reality. He is also our resident dork, who can always make us laugh, keep us entertained with a little musical ditty, and always shows up with Starbucks at just the right moment. He also thinks the boss is really cute.
