Our Story.
About Us
Co-Founders. Consultants. Researchers. Our entrepreneurial journey has taken us around the world (literally), and led us to the opportunity to get our Masters and Ph.D. degrees.
Together, Quinn and Jonathon have been working as a team on various entrepreneurial endeavors since 2011 — including founding their own social venture called Life Out of the Box to provide educational tools for children by selling international handmade goods online. Life Out of the Box (LOOTB) was founded by Jonathon and Quinn in 2011, and started as just a blog to document our entrepreneurial journey. The first blog post was published just before we hopped on a one-way flight to Nicaragua. Since then, we've lived and worked in countries all over the world — Morocco, Nicaragua, Guatemala, Mexico, and more. In 2014, we moved to Stillwater, OK to pursue our graduate degrees and join Oklahoma State University's student startup incubator program. Watch our Ted Talk video below to hear the whole story.
