Darius A. Monsef IV, known by his friends as Bubs, knows every person has an awesome creative talent and wants to help them find it and share it with the world.

He created COLOURlovers while playing with the idea that all of us see and experience color differently and he wanted to create a place for people to share those unique perspectives.

He’s also a co-founder of the disaster relief non-profit All Hands Volunteers and has spent more than one year living in disaster zones around the world.

His greatest achievement is getting his 2nd grade crush to eventually marry him.

Brian grew up in the small, western town of Cody, Wyoming. He avoided middle school chaos by teaching himself web development in the evenings---and he hasn't put it down since.

In 2007, he and his twin bro won 1st place at the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair. Immediately after, they went on to prototype a GPU-accellerated spatial database engine with C++/CUDA.

In 2011, Brian fled college and moved to Portland to join the COLOURlovers crew to build awesome things all day.

He has an asteroid named after him, loves climbing snowy peaks, rapelling down waterfalls, and spending time with his energetic yellow lab, Cider.

Colin lives in Los Angeles, walks pound puppies when he needs a break, has never finished watching Star Wars, and cooks a different recipe for dinner each night.
