About Us

Hello! We're Sean & Christopher, the founders of Vegan Candle Co. We started this venture together in order to create something with a sense of purpose, and the ability to make a difference. We also have a great love for veganism and want to share it with the world! In addition to Vegan Candle Co., we love vegan food, hosting vegan events, and publishing our vegan magazine, which we do through our Outbound Herbivore brand as well. Here is a little more about us as well! 

Sean Willis is a Cali native but has embraced Seattle since moving here 3 years ago. He has a background in video production but is excited to pursue new endeavours through his love of veganism. You’ll often (read: most definitely) find him eating a vegan burger, pizza, or something spicy AF, and regardless of what it is he will have between 4-8 dipping sauces to accompany it. He enjoys traveling with his fiancé Christopher, playing hockey, and long walks on the beach. He’s also very, very funny. 

Christopher Ballard is a vegan snack enthusiast who enjoys sharing his food experiences, most recently through writing. He met Sean who is vegan and thought “This is great! We will be eating so healthy.” That was the furthest from the truth... So much vegan junk food! He enjoys cooking and trying to mimic his favorite restaurant dishes. He is proud of his plant collection and loves playing volleyball and board games, his favorite being Ginkgopolis. Traveling with Sean and discovering the best vegan food is his favorite thing to do.
