Meet the Founders
Sea Turtle was founded by four passionate individuals who are united by a deep love for God, sustainability, and a shared mission to inspire faith in everyday moments. Together, we set out to create a brand that not only offers eco-friendly products but also spreads God’s Word and encourages meaningful connections with scripture.
We believe our work can transform lives—one encounter at a time—and create a platform where faith and sustainability go hand in hand. As we grow, we’re committed to fulfilling our vision: "inspiring others to engage with scripture and deepen their relationship with God while making a positive impact on the planet."

Growing up in Southern California, I’ll never forget the first time I noticed a scripture subtly placed under an IN-N-OUT Burger cup. Without the convenience of smartphones back then, I took that cup home, curious to see what it said. When I finally looked up the verse, I was amazed—not just by the words, but by the courage of such a well-known brand to share their faith so openly.
That small, thoughtful gesture sparked something in me. It reminded me of the power of a simple act to reconnect someone with God. Inspired by that moment, I felt a calling to create something that could offer the same experience to others—a way to gently plant seeds of faith in everyday life. That’s how Sea Turtle was born: out of a desire to inspire and bring people closer to God, one meaningful encounter at a time.
