She has a long history of working with MarketReach customers to identify their marketing needs and collect the information required to git ’er done, fast and right.

Angie Henderson
Angie Henderson

Proofreader

Armed with a red pen and a degree in English lit, Angie has taken on everything from STEM to robotics to coding to marketing in her 15 years as a technical editor and writer. Yet, her ship of three tiny humans still suffers from the occasional mutiny. She's great at algebra and pretty good at Call of Duty: Zombies but still yearns to solve a Rubik's cube. She loves a good story, especially of the anime or superhero variety.

We’re the
un-agency.

Expand your creative and production capacity.
With ours.

Michelle Hart
Michelle Hart

Finance Director

Michelle is a superhero–successfully managing finance, payroll, and HR at the office while she (unsuccessfully) manages the excitement of becoming a first-time grandparent to twins! Coworkers may occasionally fall victim to another of her “episodes” of spontaneous singing. Classic ’70s songs. Very loudly. Her work-life balance recipe includes loving on her grand-dog, Penny, getting as much time outside in the Summer as possible, visiting her favorite destinations (Bermuda is number one), camping in Maine, crafting, suspense novels, and surfing TikTok or YouTube. Sometimes all at the same time.

Skilled full-time team members producing at the speed of you.

Chris McCullough
Chris McCullough

Frontend Web Developer

Quite possibly our most quiet team member, Chris been coding since he was 13 years old. He enjoys seeing entire projects through—from start to finish. When Chris isn’t furiously tapping away on his super-clicky keyboard (Gateron blue switches, fyi), he enjoys playing with his sons and relaxing at home with a beer.

Jessica Nickels
Jessica Nickels

Project Manager

Jessica brings us years of client-side agency experience, so she knows what customers expect—strong communication, quick responses, and a smile. She thrives in our fast-paced, short-turnaround environment and is most rewarded when she hits a quick deadline and still exceeds client expectations. Ask Jessica about her pup, Nixon—or her license to pilot drones.

Karson Scharold

Emily Bergeron
Emily Bergeron

Project Manager

Emily's experience spans over 15 years in marketing—from project management to social media, advertising campaigns to B2B—along with strong communication and people skills (must be those degrees in marketing and communications). She also likes to let loose by kickboxing and cross-stitching, so watch out for fists and needles. You might find her on a walk outdoors, volunteering, traveling (that’s Honolulu in the photo), or just hanging out with her cat, Winnie Cooper.
Patty Cooke
Patty Cooke

Proofreader

Patty has an English lit degree and a background in editing, communications, and marketing. She has a love of words and a desire to make things look and sound as grammatically correct as possible. Her multiple siblings often send her emails in all lowercase and without punctuation, just to drive her a little closer to insanity, so she retaliates by correcting their text messages. She also enjoys cooking and baking and hopes to get back to her creative writing tasks that have been collecting dust over the years.

It’s go time,
not slow time.

Get **it done,
with a team that gets it.
