Our Team

He got involved with the web in early 1992 moving to Chicago in the mid-1990s to pursue djing and music production, while still working on web and design projects. Joshua continues to dj and produce music, moving back to Chicago in 2009, where he has lived and worked ever since.

Based in New York City, Lulu joined our team in 2015 and has 15+ years of experience in designing interfaces for mobile applications. She applies user centered design methodologies to create digital products that are adopted and discoverable by end users. Her personal touches and extensive use of user stories sets her apart and brings a deep understanding to her designs. She has worked with Bloomberg LP, The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, John Hopkins University, Roche, Thermo Fisher, E2Open, Contact Solutions, Pearson, and McGraw-Hill, among others.

Starting off in smoky London print shops and photographic studios, in the days before digital technology, Mark has a skillset that has only been complemented by the advent of computers and graphics software. His core competency still lies in high-end photographic retouching but recently that has been expanded to include 3D product modelling, product visualisation, animation, and motion graphics. And due to his tireless curiosity in these matters, if some other new thing comes along, he’ll probably be into that too.

In her free time, she’s passionate for watersports including kayaking and stand-up paddleboarding. Lynda lives in Glenview, IL.
