The Sumptin’ Scientific logo was created to embody the curiosity, creativity, and wonder at the heart of science.

The lightbulb (💡) serves as a universal symbol of ideas, innovation, and the spark of discovery—the moment when curiosity transforms into understanding. Inside the bulb, four quadrants highlight the breadth of our scientific exploration:

• Atom (⚛️) – Representing "the small" — physics and chemistry — and the quest to understand the universe at its most fundamental level.

• Planet & Ring (🪐) – Representing "the vast" — a reminder of astronomy and space science, pointing us to the vast unknowns of the cosmos. 

• Rocket Ship (🚀) – A mark of human ingenuity and a representation of the adventure of learning and humanity’s journey to explore the cosmos and our place within it.

• Leaf (🍃) – A nod to biology, genetics, and the tree of life — and a celebration of the beauty and complexity of living systems, my own professional foundation in science.

The warm, vintage-inspired color palette conveys approachability and creativity, while the radiating lines (🔆) from the bulb evoke the sharing of knowledge—bright ideas spreading outward into the world.

Together, these elements tell a story: science isn’t just a subject—it’s a way of thinking, questioning, and connecting everything all around us.
