Our work MO
- We travel around the world and are in different time zones

We want to be able to email you when we think of things and we want you to be able to ignore us until you are back at work
- We get super excited about projects and enjoy making shit happen
- We LOVE people that focus on "how can we make this happen?" not "Why it won't work" We would love you to highlight problems and then tell us how we might get around them together
- We don't care about the rules - we just want to help people and get shit done
- Open minded - we do things differently and don't want to be judged for it. We are not normal and will challenge things at times
