Meet the Team

Chief Creative Chick: Patti Lorin has worked with a range of companies, from Bay Area startups to global corporations. She prides herself in building brands that deliver memorable customer experiences—corporate identity, web and interface design, print design, packaging and prototyping, tradeshow exhibit signage and booth design, photography, promotions, sales presentations—the works. She understands beautiful design the way some of us understand cheeseburgers…which is saying a lot.

Chief Operating Officer: Larry Calvert is the planner on our management team. He keeps us in line, organized, and tidy. He has many years of experience in operations and finance, so we never question him. In fact, some of our employees think his name is “yes sir.” An engineer at heart, Larry is a major problem solver. He always stays calm at the rudder, which is more than some of us can say (ahem—not naming names).

VP of Content and Growth: Brianna Politzer Stevens is a startup warrior, through and through. She specializes in all things demand-gen, but her superpower is writing copy that sizzles and sings. Brianna employs strategic analysis to optimize digital campaigns for multiple channels. Her philosophy is to keep a “beginner’s mind” and rely on numbers research to coax the market into revealing its secrets.

VP of Engineering and Innovation: Dylan Frankland specializes in Agile front-end web development. He has worked with several startups and medium medium-sized businesses to create a functional, fast, and beautiful web experience. He’s a wizard at HTML5, CSS3 and LESS, jQuery, and Bootstrap. He keeps us up to speed with web technology and generally challenges us to keep moving forward.

Human Resources: Mojo and Chica are the heart behind our operation. Their mission is to keep our company warm and fuzzy. They’re always available for hugs and long chats. They’re great listeners. They’re also the real foodies of our group, although at times, they can be a bit indiscriminate.
