the GIGIL FAMILY
WELCOME TO
MEET OUR FOUNDER
Momma-owned + Operated!
GIGIL, LLC is owned and operated by Long Beach, CA local, Michelle Davis.
Michelle and her husband Cory, are Long Beach natives and Lakewood High School alumni. Together they share three children, ages 5 , 2 and 1; and manage two small businesses from home.
Michelle graduated from California State University, Long Beach with her BS in Business Administration and went on to complete her MBA with a concentration in Marketing Communications. She has experience working in the healthcare and financial services industries and has been working as an independent marketing consultant since 2015.
Michelle is a homeschool mom to her son and believes that children have the best learning opportunities through hands on experiences. Her sons love for all things science, technology and building was a true inspiration for GIGIL STEM Subscription Boxes.
Through each STEM Subscription Box, Michelle hopes to inspire a young scientist and spark innovation, creativity and an interest in STEM. Diversity, acceptance and friendship are of the utmost important to Michelle not only in life, but also in "everything" GIGIL.
It is my goal to make STEM education not only a fun learning experience, but one that sparks a passion for science and technology that will, one day, turn our junior scientists into leaders within the field of STEM and give them the opportunity to make a difference in the world.
