Hey there all you quirky boys and girls!
After a few months of helping the Quirky design team push your brilliant ideas through our crazy process, I think it’s about time I introduce myself.
I’m Adam… nice to meet you!
I have been freelancing at Quirky for a few months, but I am happy to announce, I’m here to stay. I can’t begin to tell you how exhilarating it is working at Quirky. Not only is there more energy and passion running through this office than any other, but having an enormous community with an equal amount of passion working with us is truly inspiring.
Previous to Quirky, I had been working for product design consultancies around NYC, but none of them were quite quirky enough for me. I have a passion for creating meaningful products that solve real world problems…. I’m thrilled to be working at a place that, with your help, can make that happen!!
Want to know more? I can be bribed into revealing all of my quirks with candy… or beer… or most anything delicious.
Can’t wait to work with all of you!
– Adam
Hello Everyone,
It’s great to be on board as a junior industrial designer!!! I am extremely excited to be apart of the Quirky community and to witness, first hand, the amazing things to come in the future of social product design. I was born and raised in California and spent most of my childhood in LA and then moved to the San Francisco area. Ever since I could remember, I was altering or taking apart any object I could put my hands on, from power wheels to my sister’s bike. I was lucky enough to find Industrial Design to help me release my creative juices. My education and working experience in the Silicon Valley and Paris have provided me with a diverse set of challenges in design and have only solidified my passion for creation. I have learned that the more I expose myself to different culture, art, and people, the more inspiring my world will become. I have never met such a passionate team of designers and community members and feel honored to be apart of this great challenge.

Hey Adam and Francis, cool to have you guys on the team.
Do you have to have curly hair to be a designer at Quirky?
Luke.
