A lot of Mount Pleasant runs on the water, and the water does not keep office hours. We built an operations manager for a third-generation Shem Creek seafood wholesaler who coordinates twelve independent trawler captains and forty-plus restaurant accounts, and a broker that turns a captain's radio call into priced offer sheets in chefs' phones before sunrise. Neither of those is a generic business problem. They are Shem Creek problems.
The rest of what we have built here looks like Mount Pleasant too: a property management company running storm-season readiness across flood zones and barrier islands, a custom cabinetry shop pricing jobs off architectural drawings, a mother preparing for her son's IEP meetings, a running store owner coaching forty marathoners. Businesses and families, in roughly equal measure.
Everything happens in person at the lab, about fifteen minutes from Coleman Boulevard depending on the bridge. Never a video call.
