“S
he’s my theatre girl. She’s playing Annie in ‘Annie’ right now. My husband and I spend a lot of time supporting her passion,” she enthuses while whipping out her iPhone to show me a picture of her daughter. She not only deserves a “Mom of the Year” award for being an outstanding (not to mention fabulous) full-time mom, she is also a business-minded woman with a few projects up her sleeve. She’s worked for Microsoft for several years. She’s even created her own business, The Paper House, which was up and running for 10 years in Newport Beach. Meet Andrea Young, the woman orchestrating the works behind Union Market Tustin, alongside her husband, Russell. It’s the latest project that’s about to take the county by whirlwind. “All under one roof” is the concept formulated from Young’s inspiration, the Ferry Building based in San Francisco, which sparked the idea for Union Market Tustin. “It’s the San Francisco Ferry Building of Orange County,” she tells us. This marketplace is where a mixture of eateries, boutiques and retailers align to create what sounds like the perfect shopping experience for customers—all under one roof. Shopping made convenient and easy, and we couldn’t be happier! Young fills us in on the latest.
“It’s all under one roof. It’s a great environment where you can go get wine, buy a pillow, taste some olive oil and grab some cheese—it’s an experience.” Facebook: Union Market Tustin | Instagram: @unionmarkettustin www.unionmarkettustin.com PHOTO SHOOT LOCATION: Ornate Home on Balboa Island 327 Marine Ave, Newport Beach, CA 92662 | JULY 2014 | 109
