Matt, Multimedia & Email Marketing

Born and raised in the great state of Michigan, there's no place I'd rather be than Ann Arbor. I've always been a huge fan of U of M football, so working right down the street from the Big House is a childhood dream come true. In college, I started off studying Fine Arts and finished up with a degree in Web Application Development. My educational background makes me a perfect fit at Lima Beads. My beautiful soon-to-be-wife Deidra and I grew up about 20 minutes away in the town of Ypsilanti. We've known each other since the sixth grade and have been dating since we were juniors at Lincoln High. In case you were wondering, our Big Day is October 11th!

I guess you can call me a "Web Developer", but that sounds boring and nerdy. The truth is, I may be a bit nerdy sometimes , but the work I do at Lima Beads is awesome. I prefer the title "Member of the Lima Web Team." Some days, I'll be working on reporting scripts for Kevin, other days I'll be editing video or designing a new Flash feature. My workdays at Lima Beads are kind of like fingerprints: No two of them are exactly alike. That's why I'm one of the few people in the world who actually like going to work everyday.

My favorite thing about being part of the Lima Beads team is the environment! I don't just mean Ann Arbor, I love our office and the people I work with. We have fun and joke around with each other on a regular basis. At the same time, we all take a lot of pride in our work because we have such a huge personal stake in the company. If you find that you're having loads of fun on our website, that's because we are too.
