With holiday season coming up, science-themed gifts have started popping up all over the internet. Meet the siblings behind Permia, who aim to spread their love of paleontology through their line of apparel.
Tell us a little bit about yourselves.
We're Michael and Manuel Fleischmann - siblings who grew up outside of Detroit, Michigan, and who share a profound passion for ancient life! Since we were young, we were fascinated by dinosaurs and other prehistoric creatures, and that sense of wonder never diminished. As children, we watched all the documentaries and read all the books we could, and our parents instilled in us a respect for reason and a drive to discover.
As you might expect, our childhood heroes were paleontologists like Bob Bakker, Jack Horner, and Phil Currie. In our dayjobs, we're business consultants, having worked together for nearly a decade now; but, we've never lost sight of our first love - paleontology!
