The Geek Space is a collaborative effort between Uniquely Geek Designs and StarSeeker Design. Run by Alora and Zac, The Geek Space was born with their relationship. Once both were doing shows, it made more sense to combine forces and operate as one entity at shows they were both going to be at than be separated, especially after their geekling, Lachlan Willow, joined them in December 2023. They are grateful to be able to do this full time, spending the weekdays together as a family and then traveling on the weekends to different conventions across the country. Together they hold the dream of one day opening The Geek Space as a storefront. They currently reside in Westland, Michigan with their (Alora's) four cats: Artemis, Wednesday, Berlioz, and Coraline.
Meet Alora
Born and raised in Novi, Michigan Alora has always shown her creativeside proudly. Having had a fondness for entrepreneurship blossomed through a lifetime of Girl Scouts and watching her parents become successful at becoming their own bosses, she started numerous "businesses" in high school and early in college to just earn some extra pocket money. Uniquely Geek Designs was started in January 2015 in her dorm room at Alma College and debuted at AlmaCon in 2015. From the start she has done everything from shirt making, embroidery, jewelry making, etc.
Alora has an Associates in Liberal Arts - Theatre from Oakland Community College, a Bachelor of Arts in History & Educational Studies from Alma College, and a Masters of Science in Historic Preservation from Eastern Michigan University. Her love of History took her to SE Oklahoma for 4 years to work as the Curator of the Choctaw Nation Museum, a tribe in which she is a proud member of, but ultimately felt a pull to return to Michigan in early 2023.
Meet Zac
Zac is a digital artist that utilizes both graphic design and figure photography to create abstract art of over 100 franchises. Zac has been creating digital art for over a decade and in 2022 he began his hobby of creating artwork and traveling to conventions starting at Capital City Comic Con. As of January 2024, Zac officially reached the point where his hobby became his full career. He now travels from his home near Detroit, Mi across the United States to bring his artwork to as many people as possible. Through his artwork, convention appearances, and the help of eager patrons, he is able to support his family while being able to spend time with them to his fullest extent.
Meet Lachlan
The smallest and newest member of The Geek Space family, Lachlan spends his days eating, sleeping, playing, and relaxing with his mom and dad. He enjoys watching Pokemon and trying to eat dad's artwork. He loves getting to meet everyone at conventions when he gets to tag along and taking the best naps ever since he loves loud noise. You're almost guaranteed to get an excited smile if you tell him how cute he is!
