Hello World

Hi!

We're Will and Devin, the Sparkle Partners. A duo of long-time friends who get a charge out of talking and working on business and technology (seriously, we can't stop ourselves every time we hangout). We've built a few startups in our past and are now embarking on a new journey together to build something meaningful.

We want to:

• Build impactful, sustainable businesses
• Do something fun, engaging, and downright challenging
• Grow our expertise in product-led development and bootstrapping
• Create a better future for ourselves, our families, and our friends

We met on the playa at Burning Man, where we helped construct the city infrastructure. Since then, we've partnered on a range of ventures, including Zentainer, a full-service agency specializing in ERP and e-commerce integrations for private equity clients.

Meet the Team

• Will (They/Them) — aka "Wizard," Will combines deep technical expertise with a talent for making complex topics easy to understand. Rock climber, low-fi music lover, and a family person based in Fort Collins. Give Will a problem and they can come up with solutions.
• Devin (He/Him) — "He who likes to speak with people" brings a wealth of experience in M&A product/technical due diligence and product management. Conceptual artist and problem-finder. Give Devin a market and he can find problems.

If I had to pick 4 adjectives which best describe us are: Nice, Helpful, Curious, Tenacious

In the past, Will launched OpenDance, a registration software for dance events, handling complex pricing and housing requirements. Devin created Drone Industry Wire, a press release distribution service for the UAS market. We’re now bringing our backgrounds in tech, art, and business strategy to Sparkle Partners.
