Luke
Founder & CEO
Luke paired his past experiences on his family's farm (yeah rocking picking!) with this e-commerce experience to start Mile Four. His family's love for raising chickens as pets & for eggs is the main reason Mile Four exists. When he’s not running Mile Four, he loves to travel (42 countries visited), run (begrudgingly) & has delusions of running a marathon someday.Humblebrag: Once swam in the Atlantic & Pacific Ocean on the same day.

Reelika
Owner
Reelika is Mile Four's media whizz! She runs pretty much everything that involves advertising & strategy. Reelika grew up next to a chicken farm in Estonia, & her love for chickens never left her when she moved to the US! When she’s not working, she does CrossFit, volunteers with a pet rescue, plays wih her dog Franky, cooks *delicious* meals, & travels.
Humblebrag: She grew up in Estonia & was one of the 2 million people to hold hands in the Baltic Link that helped gain independence for Estonia. -

Will is our operations extraordinare. From bagging & boxing orders to chasing down the Fed Ex guy for 'JUST ONE MORE BOX TODAY' he is the man & gets things done. When not working or bending elbows at the local watering hole he's an avid traveler (Ireland is next!), & spends time with his family.
Humblebrag: Can spin a basketball on one finger on both hands at the same time. -

John
Warehouse Associate
John, Luke's younger brother, does "whatever helps the team" in the warehouse. He grew up with chickens as well. The flock thinned out a bit by the time he was old enough to help raise them, but he loves the process & the visible transformation between life stages. When he's not stamping bags and lifting the heavy stuff, he's attending med school.Humblebrag: He can name any John Mayer song within 3 seconds of pressing play.
