Our Story
Emma and Max met on the beach in Waikiki. Max was in Hawaii surfing and Emma was on vacation. It was the true definition of love at first sight and they got engaged in Paris not long after meeting. They now live in Evanston, IL where TimeSwan is based.
Meet Our Founders
Committed to Serving our Community
Our company has always been people oriented and not profit oriented. We do not turn a profit on the services that we offer. Our goal is to instead introduce people looking to engage in creating permanent legacies with the tools and people capable of helping them do it. TimeSwan is entirely funded by its two founders; we do not charge for any services and are not compensated by the partners we refer.
Committed to your Privacy
We take your privacy very seriously, and promise that any information you entrust with us is treated with the utmost confidentiality. We do not sell any data to third parties, and will not do so at any point in the future.
Committed to Preserving Stories
We were founded to bring the opportunity to have a swan song to all people from all walks of life. "The swan song is a metaphorical phrase for a final gesture, effort, or performance given just before death or retirement. The phrase refers to an ancient belief that swans sing a beautiful song just before their death since they have been silent for most of their lifetime. Wikipedia”
Committed to Diversity
TimeSwan's founder Max is Asian-American and as we grow we aim to continue to build a diverse team from all walks of life.
Committed to Affordablility
Our mission is to make the tools of guided journaling and memoir writing affordable and accessible to everybody. We want to help make all the existing tools out there available to you.
