Professional Services

Tap into the interdisciplinary richness of our diverse network of creatives, do-gooders, engineers, entrepreneurs, instructors, makers, and other delightfully unexpected collaborators.

We pride ourselves on excellent results and meaningful engagements, often collaborating within our one-of-a-kind ecosystem to bring in subject matter experts and strategic organizational partners.

We approach this client work as:

  • a sustainable collaborative practice

  • a way to support our communities

  • a way to share our collective value, which we see as far more than the sum of our parts.

We’ve listed a few specific practice areas below, but welcome inquiries that don’t easily fall into these categories. In fact, most of our engagements touch multiple practice areas.

We love complex problems and fresh ideas.

    From the digital composition to the real life staging and production, our team is prepared to bring immersive, interactive productions on-site or off-site.

    We can keep you honest. We can also bring solutions-oriented thinking to bridging the gap between reality and aspiration.

    We can help you define what an authentic CSR or sustainability practice means for you and your organization and propose meaningful connections, interventions, and/or programs to ensure you’re holding true to conscientious intention.

  • We have a longstanding internal practice of facilitation and community engagement. Our team can facilitate meetings, consult on relationship building, and/or provide conflict resolution support.

  • Demonstrating care through food preparation is a longstanding global practice since time immemorial, and this community is no exception.

    We also have a particular practice of preparing delicious and inclusive meals (plant-based, gluten-free, allergy-conscious, etc.) Our team boasts several members with food handler’s permits, from the incomparable Jamaican cuisine of Chef Mom to plant-based Taiwanese fusion fare from Jerone.

    Let us nourish you.
