• Our goal is to build a 20 year relationship with you, and we know the way to do that is by delivering on our promises.

• We built our ISO 13485 Quality Management System to drive quality efficiently. We don’t just follow process to check the box. We challenge ourselves constantly on how we can improve processes to ensure quality, while staying nimble and agile.

• Innovation, curiosity, and commitment to first principles are at the core of who we are. We want to understand the problem your product is meant to solve at a fundamental level. We believe this drives optimal solutions.

• We believe in performing user research early and often. We look for opportunities to learn from users as early as possible. Sometimes all you need is sketches, renderings, or mock-ups. Other times, we build functional prototypes at warp speed to make sure we’re on the right track from the user’s point of view.
