Our Values
A Note from Our Founder, Brit Morin

Ever since I was young, I've always had very strong drive to create. Whether it was playing with crayons and finger paint, decorating and redecorating (and re-redecorating…) my room, or experiments using both ovens and power tools, I've always found an incredible power and satisfaction in using my hands.
As I became an adult and dove deeper into the tech world (first scoring a gig at Apple and then transitioning to a career at Google) I found myself spending more and more time staring at a screen. I spent endless hours online -- all my shopping was done on Amazon, and on-demand takeout was the norm for most meals.

I knew I needed a change. I also knew I had always had the urge to start my own company, but I had no idea what that company should be. So I decided to take a break from work and see what I naturally gravitated toward. At this point, I was living by the quote: "Turn your passion into your career and you'll never work a day in your life."
Turns out, my favorite hobby was (and is) creating. From homemade ice cream to laser cut earrings, it didn't matter what I was working on, as long as I was making something and using a little creative ingenuity to get it done. At the same time, I realized that the digital and analog worlds have come together in the most amazing ways to help empower people to be more creative -- whether by giving them detailed content to learn from (from digital recipes to video beauty tutorials), or actual tools like software or hardware that helps do the creating FOR them. (I'm obsessed with my new smart oven that has a camera inside and knows exactly how long to bake cookies w/o burning them!)
During this time, nearly all of my girlfriends told me off the cuff that "they were NOT a creative person." I hated hearing this, and knew they were wrong. (At one point, we even made a video showcasing how true this is in today's world.) So Brit + Co became my lifelong mission to change that sentiment. It's for this reason that Brit + Co was born as a destination where real women could go to get inspired and educated on how to be creative.

This is the most dynamic, multi-faceted and informed generation of women that's ever existed. Our mission is to be part of this evolution, and to inspire and enable our community to use creativity to shape their lives for the better.
As we've grown, I've realized that creativity and DIY goes far beyond crafts. This generation of women are the first true DIYers in that they really CAN and DO do it all themselves. From closing a deal at work, to curating their homes, to making a mean cocktail -- this is the most dynamic, multi-faceted and informed generation of women that's ever existed. Our mission is to be part of this evolution, and to inspire and enable our community to use creativity to shape their lives for the better.
We believe there are countless ways to thrive creatively and want to encourage all women to enhance and share their creative talents, while picking up a few new ones. Brit + Co is a community of women who want to fully embrace their potential in all areas of their lives, and aren't afraid to roll up their sleeves and get creative doing it. I'm so excited to be part of each woman's personal journey to finding a more informed, entertained and empowered creative self. I hope you'll join us along the way!
