Organic Sourdough. Real Ingredients. Wildly Loved.

Hi, I’m Michelle—a Korean-American, California-born event planner turned Midwest sourdough baker, mama of two amazing boys, and the hands behind Love Wildly Co.

Before moving to the Midwest, I co-owned an event planning business in California, where creativity and connection were at the heart of everything I did. Leaving behind my home, family, and lifelong community to start fresh was one of the biggest transitions of my life. In that season of change, I found comfort and healing in learning something new.

What began as a simple goal—to cook nourishing meals for my family—turned into a deep love for sourdough, baking, and creating. I started my first starter three years ago, and since then, what once felt intimidating has become second nature. Sourdough became more than a hobby; it became a way to ground myself, express creativity, and bring joy to others.

Love Wildly Co. is a space where I share my passion for organic sourdough breads and baked goods, lovingly made with high-quality ingredients for the St. Louis community and beyond. I also offer sourdough recipes, techniques, and workshops to support others in their own baking journeys.

In Korean, there’s a saying—손맛 (sohn-mat)—which means “hand taste,” the love and care that comes through a mother’s hands in cooking. That’s exactly what I hope you feel in every loaf, every class, and every offering I share. My hands carry the story of motherhood, of growth, and of love—shaping not just dough, but a life filled with intention and heart.

This journey is dedicated to my boys, to the friends and family I carry with me from California, and to the new community I’ve found here in the Midwest. Love Wildly Co. is about embracing change, creating with care, and finding joy in the unexpected.

Thank you for being here. Your support means the world.
