marina (designer + everything else)

Marina has a 15 year background inwith an Honours Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree. She has been working with graphics way back when they use to cut ruby film and did mechanical paste up! (Did that just age her?) Over the years, she has worked with many companies ranging from print houses to multimedia design firms, large IT companies, publishing and photo & video studios.

• Plugging her other company www.babyboomba.com

Greatest advice someone has given her
A high school teacher once asked her what she wanted to do as a career. She said she wanted to be an artist. The teacher laughed hysterically and screamed “Great! you’ll be starving!”.

cher (coder + closet geek)

Cher lives, breathes and even dreams in code. It’s like seeing Tetris pieces falling from the ceiling after hours of playing. However replace that with Cascading Style Sheets.

What she will bring to your project
Cher brings your websites to life. Her application of HTML and CSS means that your site will always display correctly on all major browsers, and her integration of Content Management Systems and Ecommerce will make your website think for itself.

A few of her favourite things (not necessarily in order)

• Karaoke
• Making your website conform to WC3 standards
• New York City
• Her iPhone
• Watching this every day at 2:00 pm

How she got to this place
After completing a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Canada, she had the opportunity to travel the world. Some working in Greece picking olives, serving falafel in the Middle East and teaching children in Japan. After coming back home, she discovered her obsession with her computer and website coding. Alas, she has embraced her technical geek side.

gwen (writer + iphone fanatic)

Gwen has over 14 years experience writing for various companies including those in the IT and manufacturing industries. With a background in Journalism, she has written many different types of documents from news stories, user manuals, web copy…and everything in between.

Ever since she could remember, Gwen was always busy reading a new book or writing something. She always knew words would have something to do with what she did “when she grew up”. Now that she is all grown up, along with writing, she occupies her time coming up with answers to the million and one questions her children ask each day and secretly thinks she could have her own Food Network show, but in reality, writing will always be her thing.

So as you can see, Gwen has a passion for working with words. She is the one who will make your words say exactly what you want and need them to say.
