In a city that’s inspired the likes of tech powerhouses like Amazon and Microsoft, it’s no wonder that so many creative and innovate mom-run businesses call Seattle home too. From indie record producers to soft drink revolutionaries, we’ve got the deets on all things cool from some of Seattle’s most amazing mompreneurs. Click through the gallery to meet these mamas and find out their mommy-knows-best secrets to parenting success.

Mary Karges

Mary Karges is one half of the dynamic mommy duo that brings Moonjar to the Seattle kiddo masses. She’s also mom to Lily, Michael and Will.

Where she’ll be on a sunny day: You’ll find Karges on any one of several Seattle soccer pitches, watching her youngest play soccer. When her kiddos were little, they also loved hitting the Japanese Garden at the Arboretum to feed the fish.

Her must-have mom product: The Moonjar Moneybox, of course, because it’s a great place to start conversations about money with little investors. Plus, it helps celebrate everyone’s individual ideas when it comes to saving, spending or sharing.

The best thing about being a Seattle mom: Karges loves the company she keeps in Seattle. It’s full of creative, smart, talented women who want to make a difference (of whom her Moonjar partner, Lalie Scandiuzzi is one). From a mom with a background in theater, that’s saying a lot!
