If you're curious to stay updated with what we're thinking about, drop your email below and we'll send you our free monthly zine. Below is a sample collage of our thoughts:

"If you name it Pre-Cool, doesn't that mean it'll never be cool?"


That's the point. If we do our jobs well, coolness will always be the natural result.


Our name is a North Star that reminds us to establish ourselves in the Before so that we can fully appreciate the After. It prevents us from straying too far into niches and leads us out of the maze of vanilla.




tldr; staying committed to the bit.

A seemingly completely unrelated improbable project, but also:

  • describes our problem-solving approach

  • represents our humble and vulnerable beginnings

  • summarizes Katherine's Graduate School Thesis Project (the academic project that she's most proud of, so far)

Now that you know a little bit about where our head's at, here are a few other things we keep around.

*Dig into our past. *

*Pour from our cup.*

*Take a bite into our core.*
