Imagine a sparkler for a sec.
It’s not a giant firework or even a noisy firecracker. It’s quiet and relatively small… but there’s something ferocious about a sparkler, too. It’s different from the way a candle flickers in the night. Crackling and fizzing and shooting out sparks, a sparkler lights up the darkness in a way that’s both fun and a little defiant.
We want to be that light.
