Team

Since 2009, large and mid-size organizations have picked our small team based on our unique expertise in building long-term research programs.  Our collaborative approach means that all of our consultants wear 2 key hats: user researcher and workshop facilitator.

We’re a remote agency with team members in or near: Washington DC, New York City, Philadelphia, Portland, Houston, Indiana, and Vermont. We work with teams across North America, Europe, and other parts of the world.
