About the Owner
Quinn Littlefield
I grew up in Chilmark, on Martha's Vineyard — spent half my childhood running around barefoot at the Chilmark Community Center — and graduated from Martha's Vineyard Regional High School before heading out to the University of Notre Dame, where I'm still a student.
Entrepreneurship isn't something I picked up in a classroom. I've been around it my whole life. At Notre Dame that turned into actual work: I'm the student director of the South Bend Entrepreneurship and Adversity Program, leading a team of roughly 40 student consultants who work directly with about 500 local entrepreneurs to help them build businesses that support their families. One name that's come out of that work and stuck with people is Importin' Joe's Ethiopian Coffee — now sold in over 180 grocery stores across seven states.
That job taught me the parts of running a business nobody glamorizes — the accounting, the government registration, the actual grind of getting a client and keeping them. This company is a direct extension of that. I didn't start it to learn entrepreneurship. I started it already knowing what the work looks like.
When I'm not working, I'm usually shark fishing off Chappy, surfing or skimboarding down at Philbin or Stonewall, or out on a boat chasing bonito and mahi mahi. I also served on the board of directors at the MV YMCA all through high school.
"I built this business to hold myself to the same standard I hold the entrepreneurs I work with at South Bend: real numbers, real accountability, no shortcuts. If you work with me, you're working with someone who was doing this before it had my name on it."
