We are proudly co-founded & led by multiracial women of color.

Our team, board, and advisors are a multi-generational group that bring a wide range of identities, lived experiences, and professional skills. This group includes people who identify as brown, first-gen, immigrants, multi-racial, neurodiverse, and/or queer. Some have chosen to be parents and some have chosen not to be. As a start-up organization, we are committed to continuing to cultivate the diversity of our team so we can be reflective of the communities and users we serve.
