Churchill Mae was founded by Tammy York Day—an executive, philanthropist, and unapologetic treasure hunter. The name Churchill Mae is a nod to two of Tammy’s favorite icons: the bold brilliance of Winston Churchill and the timeless sass of Mae West. Together, they embody the spirit of the brand—classic, daring, and unapologetically original.
Born and raised in Louisville, Kentucky, Tammy is an accomplished executive, having served as Chief Operating Officer of Delta Dental of Kentucky and CEO of the Louisville Healthcare CEO Council. But beyond the boardroom, Tammy has a lifelong passion for uncovering hidden gems.
Her idea of a thrill? Discovering a vintage Chanel bag at a yard sale or finding a designer coat tucked between the racks at Goodwill. Tammy has an eye for luxury and a talent for finding high-end pieces at irresistible prices—and now, she’s sharing her favorite finds with you through Churchill Mae.
From thrift shops to estate sales, Tammy scours the country for pre-loved treasures that deserve a second life. While she currently sells on eBay and Poshmark, Churchill Mae is where she’ll feature her most fabulous discoveries—carefully curated with her discerning eye for quality and flair.
Tammy’s love for giving back runs just as deep. She and her sister co-founded the Unbridled Charitable Foundation, Inc., and together they host Unbridled Eve—a glamorous gala held the night before the Kentucky Derby. The event has raised millions for charitable causes and has become one of Derby weekend’s most anticipated soirées.
With Churchill Mae, Tammy invites you to join her in the thrill of the hunt, the joy of the find, and the celebration of style with soul.
