Hi, I'm Cortney! Nice to meet you!

Hi there!

Nice to meet you, and welcome to Keep Me Wild! 

This brand was built with explorers, dreamers and the community in mind. Keep Me Wild is a brand that values comfort, quality, and taking care of the people, and the world, around us.

My name is Cortney, I am the founder of Keep Me Wild.

In 2014, I wrote a journal entry describing my perfect paradise, a place where the highest peaks stand up against the bay. This place also describes home for me. I grew up on a small island in the Puget Sound where we have incredible views of the Olympic and Cascade Mountains from the sandy (and cold) beach. This is my happy place. The title of that journal entry was “Keep Me Wild,” and you can find it tattooed on my finger. In some people's eyes, Keep Me Wild can attribute to being rebellious, but in my mind, it reminds me to always keep adventuring. I am a big fan of the outdoors. In my spare time, you can find me hiking, camping, traveling, fishing and spending time with my husband and black lab.

I was inspired to start this brand by my friend, Jorden. Her and her husband, Matt, have been instrumental in helping me get this idea out of my head and into the world. I also have a lot of help from my business partner, and co-founder, Nikkole. Starting a business and a brand is a lot of work and it can be scary, but having a friend in your corner and someone to work with is a lot of fun.

We have big ideas for this brand, but we want to keep our eye on how we can help our community and the people around us, which is why we will always donate 10% of our profits to organizations in the Pacific Northwest region. 

I hope you love this brand as much as I do and feel good with what it means to Keep Me Wild.

Stay wild my friends,

Cortney
