Founder, Owner & Certified Sex Educator

I get asked all the time what made me want to open an adult store? Well here’s a cliff notes version (do people even use those anymore?!).  I was attending college and working a full-time job, when I decided to supplement my income by doing fun in-home toy parties. These parties were like Mary Kay/Pampered Chef at home parties. I would educate and sell products, except instead of selling makeup or kitchen supplies. I would sell vibrators and other bedroom accessories.  When I did these parties -I always heard the same thing from my customers- If I had a retail store here in San Antonio? Because the way I presented it made everyone so comfortable to shop for these intimate products and all the stores here in town were not “nice”.  So, I went to every store in San Antonio and didn’t get that warm, welcoming, friendly vibe (lol). I knew I could do better and create a nice upscale shopping experience unlike anything else in San Antonio. So after doing home parties part-time and working a full-time job for 10+ years, I decided to take the leap and I literally quit my day job. I opened up Love Shack Boutique in 2012, and it has been the best decision I ever made! We now have 2 locations and an event center, where we host classes, private parties and educational workshops. 

On another note, We are proudly family-owned and operated, my niece Alyssa is our amazing general manager.  When my other niece, brother and sisters visit they get to work helping assist with events, and on orders, etc.  My mom also likes to help anyway she can, she makes all the gift baskets, and swag bags for our events and parties.

I am a certified sex educator through the American College of Sexologists. I also have a B.A. from The University of Texas-San Antonio (UTSA).  As a business owner and active community member, I am a professional associate of the following organizations:  The National Association of Women Business Owners (NAWBO)-San Antonio Chapter, I currently serve on the Board of Directors for The San Antonio Women’s Chamber of Commerce.  Statesman and member of The Alamo Ranch / 151 Business Association and a member of The Helotes Area Chamber of Commerce.  I am also a co-founder for the women’s networking group, Women and Wine on Wednesdays.  

My hope is that you will visit Love Shack Boutique, experience the difference, and see why our customers have made us # 1 on Google and Yelp.

Alyssa (She/Her)

General Manager

Alyssa has been working at Love Shack Boutique since 2014. You can say she is a staple member of the Love Shack Boutique. While working at The Shack, Alyssa acquired her degree from Northwest Vista College. Throughout the years, Alyssa has become knowledgeable about adult vibrators, lubricants, lingerie, and other various products in the industry. The best part of her job is the opportunity to be an advocate for sexual health and wellness. Also breaking the stereotypes when it comes to sex. A lot of people may not know what they are looking for, and that’s okay. With the knowledge she has obtained, she navigates customers toward products that align with their sexuality needs/wants. With her outgoing personality, she will have you smiling ear to ear when it comes to anything in our store. You can call her your local sexual health guru.
