In 2014, fate (or perhaps a slightly desperate web agency) brought us together in Altamonte Springs, FL. Emily was nervously interviewing for a job, and Steve, as the interviewer, was trying not to spill coffee on his shirt. Shortly after, we were both asked to move to Newport Beach, CA, where our relationship bloomed under the California stars.

We quickly discovered that we both loved exploring new places—and that neither of us could surf despite living in SoCal. Somewhere between beach hikes, taco stands, and avoiding LA rush hour, we realized our friendship had become something more. Ten years later, we're still adventuring, still making each other laugh, and still surprised at how many tech gadgets and craft supplies one household can hold.

Whether it's a beach walk with our golden retriever or a camping trip where we pretend we're “roughing it,” our love for each other and our shared dreams are what keep us going. And we're thrilled to keep this adventure rolling, glitter, gadgets, and all!
