christopher {a.k.a. headquarters} - first had the vision that is porridge papers, inc. in his house back in 1993 when he got creative with that $20 papermaking kit. after years of doing everything in his power to avoid a normal desk job, christopher spends most of his time at work AT HIS DESK! he’s the guy we go to when: something is broken,needs to be built, requires lots of numbers to be figured out or when bills need to be paid. he tinkers with all of our presses and pushes them to their limits. when not at work he has various projects at home and chases his daughters around the house.

samantha {a.k.a. the voice} - jumped into the pulp business back in 2002. since then she’s been the jack-of-all-trades, master of scheduling. from papermaking to PR, her job entails just a little of everything though her specific area of expertise is color matching. lately she focuses on making calendars coincide, keeping the customers happy and figuring out what the deal is with all of the random stacks of paper that are lying around. when she’s not working, she’s usually belly- dancing, hula-hooping, blasting the stereo, or cooking up some delicious mischief with her amazing son and wonderful friends.

blayne {a.k.a. press whisperer} spends most of his time in the letterpress studio. when he is not busy with that, you can probably find him trimming down paper, getting paper ready to ship, die- cutting, or working on random projects. he has also become quite good at figuring out how any of the random presses that christopher picks up and brings back to the studio. which might be why he is becoming a mini version of christopher which gets us thinking…is that good or bad? When blayne is not at the mill you can most likely find him skateboarding around town, or working on one of his cars.
