Our Story

Third Way Studio is based in Portola Valley, CA and was founded to help people expand their options professionally and personally to create a “mix” which prioritizes what is most meaningful in their lives now.
Started in 2014 by Debbie Siegel, who combines her experience as an executive leveraging technology to improve how we work and optimize business outcomes with her perspective and personal journey creating (and continually re-creating) her own “work + life” connection.
