Front-end developer with a knack for animation and a sharp eye for design. Mom to a pup named Maeby (who obviously became a yes) and a son named Julian. Believes all roads lead to Rome (Georgia).

Blue Ion’s PST party of one. A leap year baby who just graduated to double digits. *Checks child labor laws*—yup, all good. Find him working behind the scenes on back-end dev work and backing the Kansas City Chiefs (long before the bandwagon).

Multi-tasking comes naturally for this dad of twins—as he switches seamlessly between front- and back-end dev work. Blue Ion’s resident expert in all things ADA compliance. A true outdoorsman, he met his wife while hiking the Appalachian Trail.

Joined Blue Ion back in ’05. Endless lines of code, two kiddos, and a laundry list of launches later (we stopped counting), he’s still rocking—while building sites, apps, and our in-house dev team. Dabbles in video synth and concert visuals.

Longhorns and long dogs. Runner of digital marketing campaigns and half marathons. Special skills include building high-performing email campaigns and brewing coffee strong enough to wake the dead.

Paid media maven who wades into the mysteries of analytics and leads clients through reporting calls that make the complex digestible. And all while managing the longest-known home reno to man, pup Tootie by her side.

Eagle-eye proofreader, deft storyteller, and journalist with a penchant for writing across mediums. Happiest with a cup of coffee and when planning her next trip. Ask her how she feels about the Oxford comma.

A young gun designer who never shies away from a challenge, Greta brings Blue Ion’s own brand to life, alongside the work we do for clients, on our socials (do her a solid and hit that follow). Minnesota native who flew south for Charleston’s sunnier skies.

The biggest small talker at Blue Ion. Head of the production team, she makes to-do lists like you’ve never seen and slays the status update. Off the clock, lives her best life at the brewery or on the slopes back home in Colorado.  

Just the one letter will do—unless you’re his mom or the IRS. Dynamic designer with a knack for illustrations who believes his best work is produced in his back shed. Lifelong surfer who reckons just one shark bite isn’t enough to call it quits.

A team coach, sounding board, and air traffic controller all wrapped up in one cozy cardigan. Chief among her producer superpowers? Balancing budgets and the most valuable resources of all: bandwidth and brainpower.

From beer cans to conservation logos, as creative director, Nic has designed it all and then some. Tinkers with type and textures during the workday, moonlights as a musician, and rides the tides the rest of the time.

The technology piece of the Blue Ion founder puzzle. Wears many skipper hats as he charts the course for all software, servers, and systems. Happiest at 10,000 feet while piloting shelter animals to their forever homes.

The strategy piece of the Blue Ion founder puzzle. Equal parts sheepherder, planner, and therapist, he’s tasked with bringing out the best in brands. His “I’d rather be” stickers: on a bike or skis, trail running with dogs, sipping tequila, or sleeping in his van. All at once is a life goal.

Resident astrologer and superstar producer who leads large-scale website builds by day, toddler negotiations by night. Always has a witty comment and the brief history of the latest pop culture saga at the ready.
