Origin Story

We lived across from the World Trade Center on the Hudson river + witnessed 9/11 up close. So close, in fact, that we could smell the fire pit at ground zero that burned for 30 days. This event forced us to reconsider our life priorities.

Social Impact

We moved to Manhattan after 9/11 only to move once again a year later to downtown Chicago to start an early childhood education enterprise that helped connect city children to nature with an innovative + immersive multi-media environment.
