Mike Yarbrough
Founder and Navy Veteran
Mike had the entrepreneur bug for a long time before Rustic & Main took off. While working in IT, he created and sold software, worked on a book, and started an online community, Wolf & Iron, that encourages real manliness. Mike combined his love of storytelling with his experience in woodworking to create the original line of Rustic & Main wood rings. He no longer crafts rings but spends most of his time working on R&M's marketing endeavors and new ring designs for the business. On the side, Mike is writing his first work of fiction and learning to be an instrument of destruction through Krav Maga.
Summer Yarbrough
Co-Founder
Soon after R&M launched with two rings on Etsy, Summer stepped in and helped the company grow into what it is today. Her hard-earned knowledge from growing up in the jewelry business and homeschooling her sons was instrumental to R&M's success. Summer grew and adapted her roles as Rustic & Main went from Summer, Mike & their friend Jeffrey operating out of the couple's home to a 28-member team working in a 7,000-square-foot building. When she isn't working on the family business, Summer loves traveling with Mike, enjoying art in its many forms, and spending time in nature with Pippin.
Pippin
CCO- Chief Cheer Officer
Yes, Summer really loves Pippin a lot. That’s what happens when you marry your high school sweetheart, and your children are all grown up before you are 45. Your dog gets a spot right beside you on your business website. Truth is, Pippin gets the top spot because it is hard to pick our favorite teammate to be on the same line with the owners. They are all superstars in our book and key to the success of Rustic & Main. Plus, who would not want to see more pictures of Pippin? She's usually following Summer around work most days and is eager to greet both customers and postal workers alike.
Lydia Umberger
Customer Experience Manager
Lydia made the jump from the world of recreation and fitness to Rustic & Main, where she now leads the charge on all things customer experience. From answering customer questions to ensuring orders ship smoothly, she keeps everything running like a well-oiled machine. She also plays a key role in The Bungalow operations, making sure every visitor feels right at home. Lydia is not only dedicated to R&M’s customers but also to supporting her team, always bringing encouragement and a can-do attitude to the workplace. When she’s not keeping R&M customers happy, Lydia is likely out in her garden, getting her hands dirty, or doting on her two pups, Winnie & Odin. She and her husband love spending time outdoors, especially if it means adding more plants to their ever-growing collection.
Jeffrey Payne
Production Manager a.k.a. Shop Pop
A ring maker with a serious passion (and talent) for drumming. Jeffrey was Rustic's first hire and probably the most patient student of ring crafting (because we were still figuring things out). Some fine rings have passed through his hands over the years. He's referred to as our "Shop Pop" not only for his time at Rustic, but also for the wisdom he brings.
Ricki Herlihy
Shipping & Receiving Lead
Ricki has been with R&M since the business operated out of Summer & Mike's home. She started shipping and packaging rings from the home office and now leads the Rustic & Main's Shipping & Receiving Department. Ricki can regularly be found hosting a party, dancing to music, or spending time with her children and grandpups.
El-Don Beasley
Craftsman and US Navy Veteran
Beasley is the guy everyone likes and lights up a room with his brilliant smile. That same smile is seen in several of our pictures as he is one of the faces of Rustic & Main. He brings a creative eye and dedication to his role as a craftsman and is our go-to man for fabrics like tartan. Beasley frequently shows off his lovely family of girls by bringing them by the shop for a visit.
Kassie McGinnis
Craftsman
Kassie jumped ship from her life-draining corporate job to become a craftsman at Rustic and Main four years ago. Since then, she has been a big part of launching new products and has brought an incredible eye for detail to the rings she crafts. Kassie has a big heart for her family, including her German Shepherd, Knox, a favorite shop dog of ours.
Selena
Customer Service Specialist
Born and raised in North Carolina, Selena has been part of the Rustic & Main team since October 2020. As the Customer Service Specialist, she is the friendly voice behind many of our customer interactions, helping people design the perfect ring for their big moments—whether it's a wedding, anniversary, or a once-in-a-lifetime gift. Selena loves getting to know customers on a personal level, hearing their stories, and ensuring that every ring is as meaningful as the moment it represents. At home, you’ll likely find her tending to the garden, biking through scenic trails, or firing up the grill for a backyard cookout. Whether at work or in life, Selena believes in making every moment meaningful.
Kari Felts
PR & Marketing
As a California native, Kari relocated to North Carolina 10 years ago when her husband’s job in NASCAR brought their family to the East Coast. She’s a proud mom to three awesome kids and a dedicated soccer mom who loves cheering from the sidelines. Kari brings her passion for building relationships and creativity to the Rustic & Main team in the Marketing department. When she’s not working, you’ll find her spending summers on Lake Norman with family and friends, relaxing around a bonfire, or hanging out with her dog Lucy. Her strong faith in God influences every aspect of her life.
Linnzi Fusco
Content Creator
Linnzi brings a keen eye for detail and a passion for fine jewelry to Rustic & Main. As the primary product photographer, she highlights the artistry of each ring, drawing from her background in design, fine jewelry and photography. Originally from Kansas, she grew up collecting rocks, which naturally led to a passion for fine jewelry and gemstones. With a Fine Arts degree and experience in weddings, action photography, and even working at an orthodontic lab, she’s honed a unique creative skill set. When she’s not behind the camera, you’ll find her hiking, gardening, or adding to her ever-growing rock and mineral collection—proof that some childhood interests never fade.
Christopher Robyn Bonner (Like Winnie the Pooh)
Content Creator
With over 12 years of video production experience and four years in social media, Christopher knows how to tell a great story—whether through a lens or a perfectly timed movie quote (and trust us, he has one for every situation). He’s worked on everything from documentaries to music videos to promotional pieces, bringing a cinematic touch to Rustic & Main’s content. When he’s not behind the camera, you’ll find him running or hiking in sandals, brewing coffee for the office, or rewatchingLord of the Ringsfor the hundredth time. He once attempted to bike 100 miles through Death Valley, making it 75 miles before the desert won that round—proof that he’s always up for an adventure.
Carolina Hart
Order Fulfillment Specialist
If someone is having a good laugh, it is usually with Carolina. However, she is serious about helping our customers design their rings and giving the best customer service possible. Carolina is also serious about beautiful travel photography and trying new foods. If you have seen pictures of our rings for women, chances are, Carolina is in those pictures.
Brad Clay
Craftsman
Brad is a heads-down, quiet kind of guy. We all know when he speaks, it's worth hearing, and often, it is to tell us about his sweet family. Brad brings a quiet determination to his craft that's easily seen in his work. Brad would never brag about the steady flow of great-looking rings he crafts, but the results speak for themselves. He’s a top-notch crafter!
Sidney Seiber
Marketing Specialist-a.k.a. Sunny Side Sid
Sidney recently graduated from Bob Jones University. She brings an eye for detail and a can-do attitude to all the creative and analytical work she does for marketing. Sidney is one of the sweetest and most encouraging people on the planet. She may look a little famous as she has been featured in our ads and website pictures.
Phoebe
Artisan Ring Crafter
Phoebe is a skilled artisan with a passion for crafting unique wedding rings that blend natural elements with timeless metals. She carefully selects stones, flowers, and sea shells, combining them with materials like wood, gold, silver, and titanium to create meaningful, one-of-a-kind pieces. With meticulous attention to detail, Phoebe takes pride in crafting rings that beautifully symbolize each couple’s love story.
Zack McGinnis
Craftsman and Marine Veteran
Zack wins the prize for being from the most northern part of the USA, Minnesota. After serving in the Marines and at a correctional facility up North, Zack came down to the R&M site unseen based on the good word of his fellow Marine, Eric Thompson. We are glad he did because he rocks out beautiful rings and is responsible for crafting several of our custom ring designs.
Matt
Ring Crafter
With a background in business and industrial design, Matt blends creativity with precision in every piece. When he’s not crafting rings, he’s playing guitar, oil painting, or out on the disc golf course. A lover of music, off-roading, and all things hands-on, Matt’s passion for craftsmanship goes beyond the workshop—it’s a way of life.
Elisha Oddy
Craftsman/Shop Specialist
We have known Elisha since he was twelve years old, and since then, he has always been designing and creating something. We were excited to put his ingenuity and creativity to work at Rustic & Main. Elisha works primarily in precious metals and titanium and provides support for all craftsmen. If he's not working in the shop, you can find Elisha fishing or simply outside enjoying nature.
Ian David Snelleman
Craftsman
Ian, so far, is our only west coast native and brings previous crafting experience to his role. He's a good-natured guy who brings a lot of fun energy to the team. Ian likes to work with a variety of materials, but some of his favorite rings to craft feature titanium or antique walnut. One benefit of being an R&M craftsman is that Ian has more time to get back into mountain biking. That's Rad!
Paul Oaks
Craftsman
Paul was an easy pick for a crafter due to all of the previous knowledge he brought to the table. He had lengthy careers in set design, theater design, and metalworking before coming to Rustic & Main. Paul enjoys the challenge of a good antler ring and loves the final result. We appreciate the peaceful and calm demeanor he brings to each task.

Esmi
Order Fulfillment
Esmi brings a unique blend of organization, quick wit, and just the right amount of sparkle to the Order Fulfillment team. After a brief Florida adventure, Esmi returned to R&M and hit the ground running—coordinating custom orders, tracking down last-minute changes, answering emails with style, and generally making the complex feel effortless. She’s a master of turning chaos into calm and somehow manages to keep everyone laughing while asking (again) for those elusive reports. Esmi's sharp mind and sharper sense of humor make her an essential part of the team and a favorite on the shop floor.
Ryan Rowlee
Repair and Craftsman
Ryan is our resident expert on Russia and Lord of the Rings. His taste for the classics extends to his ring preference, as his favorite R&M ring is The Old Fashioned. He is one of our newest additions but has been a quick study and a great team member. A day will come when he will make one great ring to rule them all...
