S.F. Bay Area Born and Bred Brand
Brand Philosophy
We are unique. We each have our own goals, interests, passions, and causes. At the same time, we believe we are interconnected. The universe is a great jigsaw puzzle, and each of us contains a special piece. Beyond our color, shape, size, thoughts, feelings or actions, what connects us most is what we all usually have in common: our hearts, minds, and moral compass. In the midst of world problems and global issues, our mission is to be there for young people so that when they need inspiration, something they saw, learned, or experienced from BuzzingBOTS will help them find their way.
History
Before BuzzingBOTS was founded, Kristine Tsung graduated from the architecture program at UC Berkeley. Her desire to improve herself and the world through using universal design principles led her to meet Feng Shui Master Steven Post at his Secrets of Wealth seminar in San Francisco in 2005. Since then, Steven has guided her in various projects, including BuzzingBOTS. Originally, BuzzingBOTS achieved representation from top-tier licensing agencies worldwide in 2012 and was showcased at licensing shows throughout North America and East Asia. In 2016, BuzzingBOTS took a break from licensing shows temporarily, and Kristine went back to school to earn her masters in education and teaching credential. In more recent years, Kristine has developed BuzzingBOTS into an educational brand that engages students with school.
