Ian Fox

CTO

Born in a small town in the west, Ian spent most of his life in the dustbowl of Tucson, riding horses to and from his one-room school where he recited arithmetic facts for hours at a time. This proved to be the highlight of his days, and inspired him to get a bachelors and masters in Mathematics at Northern Arizona University in Flagstaff.

Post-college, he spends most of his time creating programs for “computers” – machines which can, basically, recite the arithmetic facts of his youth – but now billions of these facts, every second! It continues to delight and amaze him, no matter how many times he makes use of them.

Steven Edwards

COO

Steven grew up in Minnesota, but made the decision to move to Arizona after wanting something a little warmer. He graduated from the University of Arizona’s School of Business, majoring in Marketing. He gained many years of management experience while running a movie theater in Tucson. Many people who meet Steven would say he is very outgoing.

In Steven’s free time, you may find him playing drums or listening to music. After meeting Steven, you might find that you both have a few common music interests, as he has a passion for all types of music. Steven also enjoys going to the movies and playing video games. He always enjoys going to new places and trying new things.

Chelsea Kohagura

Business Manager

Chelsea was born and raised right outside of Washington D.C. but now resides in Tucson, Arizona. Professionally she has been focused on perfecting business management for the last 6 years.

She found a passion for understanding people and helping grow businesses along the way.

Nikita Babichev

Creative Director

Nikita was sent from Russia to join the best marketing agency in the Southwest. He is so old that he started to design when to draw a line took you coding “line (20,20)-(30,50),1”. However today he is armed with classic art education and modern graphic design weapons and always ready to go extra mile taking care of our projects.

When not designing he fixes things which his little daughters destroyed in his absence.
