Have we met? I’m Chad Stewart, owner of Ordo. I run this business with my partner/wife/best friend, Joelle. We are based in Vancouver, WA where we are raising our family and a whole host of animals that Joelle has brought home over the years.

Getting to work with passionate people, being in their corner and helping them succeed, watching life-long dreams come into reality - thats why I'm here. I want to know more about you and your business - drop a comment below so we can connect!

A little more about us: We both grew up in the PNW in families who ran their own businesses, so it only made sense to carry on the tradition. I am the nerd, Joelle is the artist, and in my biased opinion, we make a pretty great team.

When we aren’t working, you’ll find us in the yard chasing little ones (human and animal alike), at the local coffee shop, or working on one of many DIY home projects.
