Visionary entrepreneur Brynn MacLennan has spent the past four years transforming her passion for oral health into a thriving business with the SLATE Electric Flosser. In October 2021, she launched a wildly successful Kickstarter campaign—surpassing the funding goal on the very first day. Since then, the company has grown rapidly, reaching $4 million in sales in 2024 with a goal of doubling that in 2025.
While financial success is rewarding, Brynn approaches her work with a deeper purpose: to educate customers on the importance of flossing and improving their oral health. This year, she was recognized as one of the top 25 most influential business people in the Greater Spokane area.
