Who is The Clean Candle?
The Clean Candle is Jill Nagel Kosdrosky, a former Industrial Engineer and Financial Executive turned candlemaker. She left the corporate world in 2019 to follow her passion for clean living and safer products. Born and raised in Pittsburgh, PA, she now lives outside Aspen, CO with her husband and rescue pup in a sweet little mountain town called Basalt. She creates all of her soy candles by hand.
