Hey Quirksters! I am Quirky’s new Community Intern. I am so psyched to be here and I’m really excited to learn all about Quirky’s inner workings from customer service to media to, well, the whole product development process.

I almost never have days when I don’t smile… I really dislike those rare, rare occasions. Name: Rut Read More...
