Team Aurora

Our Collective Story

Our Collective Story

It was amazing working side-by-side with the founders of 500 Designs, collaborating to build a product that pushes the boundaries of creativity and innovation–something that will help and benefit thousands of people anywhere, anytime. I consider it a privilege to witness their drive and dedication to the company first-hand. Their talent inspired me to keep breaking new heights and to give everything I’ve got towards a goal in mind. Not only did we work smart and hard, but we also played hard, taking the time to see new places and experience new things. They introduced me to my new Death Row food: a salmon poke bowl! 

To say it was incredible would be an understatement – and I am grateful to experience this opportunity with such extraordinary people.
