The Pampa Team

Victoria was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina and grew up between the city and her family’s farm in the rural province of La Pampa. As Pampa's co-founder and Global Director, she works across design, photography, PR and partnerships among other things. In her work, Vicky is passionate about sustainable practices and loves working closely with artisans to help empower remote communities and preserve traditional knowledge and craftsmanship. Everything she designs and photographs is influenced by her love of the natural world and her desire to communicate a sense of place. 

Carl was born in Australia and met Victoria whilst travelling across South America in 2011. He thrives on being organised and cares deeply about building lasting relationships with Pampa's customers. A keen photographer, he enjoys contributing and working across the Pampa and Tracing Maps series, and using visual storytelling and documentary style photography to inspire others to connect with the environment.

Manuel is Pampa’s man on the ground in Argentina, connecting us with our partner weavers while we’re home in Australia. Manuel – or ‘Manso’ as he is more affectionately known is our business partner and has helped us grow significantly over the last few years, being the answer we have been looking for to ensure that a constant supply of new Pampa pieces is readily available. He loves nothing more than horse riding and surfing during his spare time. Having lived in Australia himself in the past and being Argentinean-born, he understands Pampa’s mission perfectly. Having a degree and experience in business administration, he brings some very useful tools to the Pampa team.

Dani is our Global Brand Manager. Her excellent organisational skills and eye for detail make her a perfect all-rounder. Dani has a passion for travelling in South America, especially through small towns where there is a strong sense of heritage and culture to absorb. She shares her love of textiles and belief in the story behind Pampa with every client that walks into our concept store or shops online. As she has a deep understanding for the process behind Pampa’s rugs and how to design them to work well in modern spaces, she is the perfect fit for assisting comercial clients interested in custom rugs for special projects.

Tomi is our latest addition to the Argentinean team, working side by side with Manuel or looking after operations and production making sure everything runs smoothly on ground. His love for travel and arts makes him great for this role, where a great understanding of Pampa’s core & values and our artisans partners it necessary. Also Tomi is a great singer and songwriter, we love his sensitive side.

Andi is Pampa's Store & Online Manager. Her genuine, warm nature and her approach to her work makes everything around Andi feel so light and easy going. Andi brings her great sense of style and aesthetic to Pampa, from her background as a stylist and designer by trade. She's always putting her golden touch on The Pampa studio, always making our store appear fresh and cool. We love having her as part of the Pampa family.

Miah has the most beautiful energy and a way of making everyone who walks through our door feel relaxed. She is currently studying Interior Design and brings with her a great understanding of colour and texture and an eye for the small details that make a space feel complete which she loves to share with our clients.

Holly is Pampa's in-house graphic designer. With over 10 years design experience, an unique personal style and a very strong eye for detail, she brings all of our creative ideas to life. Holly was the first person we meet when moving to Byron Bay 7 years ago, as she did our first styling in a shoot at her house! She showed us through her beautiful home and gentle way, how beautiful life can be in this small town. She draws inspiration from living in a like-minded, creative community and splits her working week between Pampa and her Art Gallery “Yeah, nice!”.

Poncho loves the beach and going to the park, he's at work everyday with us as he loves being surrounded by his family. He welcomes everyone with a happy face and a hello bark every now and again. Security surveillance is his main role at Pampa, but he often sleeps on the job and takes long siestas underneath the office desk. We love you Ponchi!
