Who We Are

Est 2013

We build the tools to fuel your brightest ideas.

We appreciate that it isn't always glamorous and that breakthroughs are a lot harder than in the movies. We know how it feels to basically never feel like a superhero, especially when it seems like the answers are anywhere but in your data. We also know that for every failed experiment, late-night, and cold cup of coffee, you're helping light the way toward progress, and it's because of you that each day is a little brighter than the day before.

Our Story

In 2013, Kristen and her husband Geoff started designing and hand-making sustainable goods to celebrate science in a tiny NYC apartment. From those days of screen printing and storing wares beneath a lofted bed, we've come a long way. We've traded Manhattan for Central Oregon's high desert, but our mission has stayed the same: design and build goods that show-off the beauty of science while trying to leave the world just a little better than we found it.

Our DNA

We are a minority woman owned and led small business. Our inclusive workplace provides meaningful full-time jobs to adults with disabilities. We stand for sustainability in all our actions from the products we make to the energy we use.

We found we needed a lot more room and a space of our own. We moved out to Central Oregon and (during a global pandemic) bought our first warehouse!

2018

Portland, OR.
We continued growing and were lucky enough to find a unique warehouse space in Cathedral Park.

2016

Medford, OR.
We finally got a real warehouse space and made our first hire – Karl!

2014

Jersey City, NJ.
Our fledgling company quickly outgrew our tiny NYC apartment, so we moved across the river for a dedicated studio and shipping room.

The journey begins in a Manhattan apartment with a roommate.
