Alina Matson was born and raised in Minnesota after her family came to the states as refugees. While in college, she learned about product development which inspired her move from the midwest to California. During the pandemic, Alina struggled to find motivation to exercise and be healthy, but always made time for video games, which led to the idea for Glossbird. Glossbird aims to promote wellness by leveraging the benefits of gaming for both physical and mental health. She teamed up with Samara Fantie, a researcher turned game developer and artist, who is passionate about using her eclectic skills and knowledge to improve wellness.
