Who We’ve Worked With
The “Mean Gean” Story
The name "Mean Gean" is a legacy of resilience. Paula Gean earned the nickname as the only woman in a high-pressure startup environment, where she had to hold her own against the status quo. It is a nod to the legendary wrestling announcer "Mean Gene" Okerlund - a figure known for holding the microphone amidst chaos and demanding answers from the toughest fighters in the ring. Today, the name symbolizes that same spirit: not backing down from complex situations and demanding the truth from the data. The logo is a nod to Paula’s Latina roots.
