Blueprint, a wedding website and universal registry platform, is located in Seattle and was recently acquired by David’s Bridal in 2018.

The DPS team is tasked with strategizing, designing, developing, and creating engaging experiences across the entire David’s Bridal digital ecosystem, with Blueprint being just one of the many digital products in the works.

Paddle Social Clubhouse is building a social-first pickleball and entertainment venue for the Seattle area. We combine indoor pickleball courts, drinks, shareable food, and interactive games like projector darts into one welcoming clubhouse built for connection. People want more ways to spend time together in person, but many entertainment options feel repetitive or disconnected. At the same time, pickleball is growing fast and Seattle continues to attract active young professionals, couples, and community-focused groups looking for places to meet up. We’re creating a venue that makes it easy to be social—whether that means booking court time, grabbing drinks after work, hosting a group event, or dropping in for a fun night out. Our goal is to build a memorable gathering place that blends movement, hospitality, and community, then grow into a recognizable Pacific Northwest brand over time.
