A women’s co-working space blooms Downtown

It began as an idea. Chelli Wolford, sister and chief strategist to Latin singer Pitbull, had just moved from San Francisco to Las Vegas and realized something was missing. Specifically, there wasn’t a space in Las Vegas for women to come together and get things done. “When you work from home, you miss community,” Wolford says. “I was pretty bummed that there wasn’t anything like [San Francisco’s] the Hivery, and then I thought, ‘Hey, maybe this is an opportunity.”

Wolford paired up with former Wall Street executive Ginger Melien to launch Bloom, a cozy, membership-based co-working space Downtown that encourages women to network and thrive alongside one another. Local designer Heather Soto created each room with Bloom’s core values in mind, and the space provides full access to office necessities, a podcast area and a maternity room.
