A Local Eye for Beautiful Things

A Vail native, Catherine Gerken has always had a deep connection to the community she calls home. After attending Wake Forest University, she returned to Vail and built her career in retail, a world she has loved since college.

Over the years, Catherine developed a passion for beautiful products, thoughtful merchandising, and helping customers find pieces that make their homes—and everyday moments—feel special. That experience ultimately led her to Annie’s, where she brings together her love of retail, entertaining, and timeless design.

For Catherine, Annie’s is about more than beautiful things. It’s about creating a welcoming place where locals and visitors alike can discover something special to take home, give as a gift, or enjoy for years to come.
