Who We Are

“Having worked both in start-ups and corporations throughout various continents, our broad marketing and business background has brought us far. But we were restless. We wanted to feel we were doing something good for our planet and contributing to our community.
So we decided to join our two greatest passions: marketing and the environment.
We are proud to run a paperless business, where 80% of our office supplies are reused. Our web hosting is 100% powered by renewable energy. We participate in various community and reforestation events throughout the year and our local partners provide our customers recycled and post-consumer paper printed with vegetable or soy ink. And that’s just for a start.
A person can make a difference. And we’re making ours.”
- Sofia Ribeiro & Cecilia Lu
