Early career

Scott moved to Austin at the age 19 and started her first company in a mall, a small hat store called Hat Box. Scott designed hats for people going through chemotherapy, to be "comfortable but stylish".
Kendra Scott Design
In 2002, Scott started Kendra Scott Design, Inc. and began making jewelry out of her spare bedroom.
