Heritage Beanie with cuff

Greg graduated with a BFA in industrial design from SCAD and moved back to Maine in 2011. He began his design career as a product designer for a national outdoor retailer. After having a life altering event in 2013 he and Christina decided to found Benoit’s Design Company in Westbrook Maine. Greg realized life is precious and wanted to design products that connected to the adventurer within everyone. He grew up in very active family who spent summer on the water and winter in the mountains. Any chance he can get he loves to travel and experience new cultures. If he doesn’t have projects up to his eyeballs than he is spending time with family and friends, dishing up something new in “Greg’s dirty kitchen”, or cleaning the dust off the shop dog, Walter.

Karen had a long, successful career in Corporate America and retired after 35 years to search for a position that she could be passionate about and still utilize her Administrative, Project Management and Accounting skills. When not working, Karen can be found attempting to run, bike and swim as she trains for the Tri for A Cure event held annually by the Maine Cancer Foundation, or experimenting in the kitchen, cooking or baking new recipes to test on her family and friends. Karen enjoys traveling to the Caribbean islands with her husband to escape the Maine winter, if only for a brief time, each year.
