Bat Hats

It really is this simple. We created a company that makes hats for bats. 

They are fun but also practical. They protect your windows and walls from stray bat handles. 

To date, we have shipped tens of thousands of units to 50 different states and 4 countries. 

I head up everything tied to revenue. 

I develop our strategies to acquire customers and convert them into our biggest brand ambassadors. 

Over our first 3 years, we have grown thousands of people on our email list and gained thousands of followers across our social channels.

Heartwood

Started this brand that sells hardwood laptop cases. Now we have evolved to so much more.

 I was tired of putting my laptop straight in my backpack and it getting all scuffed up. So we decided there had to be a better way. Always pushing to continue to take steps forward. 


Whether it’s a 9 a.m. meeting or remote work on a camping trip, Heartwood cases are built to protect and last on all of your adventures.

Heartwood Cases was born out of a desire for authenticity and a love of nature. Our founders are adventurous entrepreneurs who know firsthand the challenges of finding attractive, lightweight, and sturdy laptop protection. Our cases are built to be rugged, stylish, and slim.

If you visit our Indiana workshop, you'll find an artisan with a keen eye for beauty and a dedication to quality. We aim for sustainability in all of our processes. Our pledge is to plant a tree for every case purchased from Heartwood to replenish the natural materials used by our company.

The Get Indiana. family grows again! 

Pumped to announce our acquisition of Fishers Digest, a hyper local newsletter serving the north east suburbs of Indianapolis. 

Skyler B. has done an incredible job growing the brand the past few years and I am pumped that we get to carry on the torch. 

This will be the 13th Indiana media property in our portfolio, and we have more big news coming in 2026. 

If you are on the north side of Indianapolis and want the inside scoop around Fishers I'm dropping the link in the comments.
