In the D: Detroit Sewn Hits Its Stride

Detroit Sewn and its founder, Karen Buscemi, are used to deadlines, high pressure and moving quickly. Buscemi is a former magazine editor turned entrepreneur, and she has used every bit of that work ethic and energy so help create more than 300,000 medical masks for hospitals and first responders across Metro Detroit. 

They smashed that goal and then some.

“Between our factory and our factory partners all producing for our clients, we have made over 700,000 masks,” Buscemi said.”
