Who We Are

Feeling good about making a difference

The idea for Blue Collar Consulting was born during our regular road trip through the mountains of Northern California. We were on our way back to Chico after spending time with our business operations in the coastal town of Crescent City. As usual, we were discussing our careers, personal goals, and the aspects of our work that have brought us the most fulfillment. During this conversation, a vision started to take shape of a way to organize and concentrate these passions in order to best serve our community. We almost simultaneously had the idea to start a consulting business. It was an easy decision considering our complimentary skill sets, the ease with how we work together, and our desire to improve the world around us. We have reached the stage in our careers where we are ready to have fun dedicating our wealth of experience and insight to organizations that are looking to make steps towards trauma-informed change.

We chose our business name and logo for several reasons. “Blue Collar” represents a few trademark identifiers: dependable, hardworking, genuine, authentic, and fun. We feel that these characteristics describe us perfectly. The dog in our logo represents our mutual love of dogs – can’t be serious all the time, right? The colors in our logo are intended to represent the blending of our personalities as well. Blue stands for being compassionate, kind-hearted, honest, and relationship based. Orange is for being bold, charming, confident, adventurous, and fun. By reflecting on our name, logo, and origin story, we hope that our peers will be able to gather a strong sense of who we are and what we stand for.
