Meet Our Team

Just Got 2 Have It! is a B2B sales representative agency in the gift and home industry. The agency was founded by Barbara Knight, a visionary leader who brought legendary creativity and innovation to the gift industry. A few years in, she invited friend and colleague Michelle Morgan to partner with her and grow an already successful business.

Together, Barbara and Michelle’s award-winning insight and impact earned them the inaugural ICON Award by AmericasMart Atlanta, Gifted Women Recognition by Gifts & Decorative Accessories magazine, and multiple Best of Floor Awards for Outstanding Visual Design by AmericasMart Atlanta.

Sadly, Barbara lost her brave fight with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) in November 2023. Her legacy lives on in the company's commitment to excellence, sense of fun, and unparalleled dedication to its customers. Barbie's influence inspires us every day.

Bridget Boccaccio

Sales Manager, West

(201) 874-8015 [email protected]

I am originally from NJ and was formerly a Special education teacher, but I have always dabbled in retail.  Most notable is the 15 years I spent working with Pier 1 where I embraced my knack for seasonal resets and transforming store displays. My career then led me to Paddywax, where I held various roles gaining experience in National accounts, forecasting, and sales rep/agency management. Having worked with JG2HI on the vendor side, I believe I bring a unique perspective and have always found joy in building strong relationships with representatives and customers alike.
