We see the humanity of others and consider their needs, objectives, and challenges as we go about our work. We hold ourselves accountable for our impact on others as well as our results.
Wizardry
We actively develop our skills. We welcome the uncomfortable work it takes to master ourselves and our craft. We continuously learn, improve, and help others do the same.
Fun
Whether it’s traveling together or creating useful products together, it’s essential to have a good time. Even though we don’t take ourselves too seriously, we’re serious about providing value.
