I can speak with a really cool Russian accent and I have ascended Elbrus (the highest mountain in Europe). Whenever I am not climbing big rocks or speaking like Boris from Rocky and Bullwinkle, I design and develop websites and desktop applications. I am also a fairly established photographer with over 10 years of experience and I have a bunch of university degrees, most of which I have never used. Oh, and I have the most boring title in the company.

Favorite Quote: Not all chemicals are bad. Without chemicals such as hydrogen and oxygen, for example, there would be no way to make water, a vital ingredient in beer. (Dave Barry)

Creative Director

I am originally from Columbus, Ohio(Go Bux!) and I moved to Pittsburgh, PA 5 years ago. I have been designing websites and website applications for over 10 years now. I have experience designing for both the big guy and the little guy; from large universities to small, family run businesses. I prefer to get into the more creative aspect of design, but also enjoy coding like a true geek now and then.

Favorite Quote: Let us not forget to form a team up together and go into the country to inflict the pain of our karate feets on some ass of the giant lizard person.

Nik Stanisic
The Animator

I hail from Columbus, Ohio where I began my journey of mastering the techniques of interactive web design while at The Ohio State University. I soon learned that my entrepreneurial mindset and desire to learn cutting edge technologies were not a match to the curriculum. As a result I started my own web design business, HyperTheory Designs with partner Chris Toth. While working at HyperTheory Designs I focused on Flash, the future of the interactive web experience. I have since gone on to work on my own as a freelance Flash designer. I’ve seen Flash from its inception, and understand the power and future it has with the Internet. I am currently residing in Bradenton, Florida where I’m enjoying the sun and continue to work on any projects where my expertise can be put to good use.

Pat Gunn
The Perl Geek

I have been using Unix, C, and Perl for many years, and also can cook a mean stew. I’m involved in the Open Source community, and know a lot about Wikis, CVS, Databases, and where to get good Indian food in Pittsburgh.

Emily Garrett
Wordsmith and Sentence Conjurer

I originate from the Great Frozen Tundra Up North (otherwise known as Rochester, NY) and am one of the few Pittsburghers who find the weather here quite balmy. I try to throw together a sentence or two whenever my son isn’t practicing his aim in my general direction. How else will he ever be able to write “Alexander” in the snow?

Eric Riemer
The Big Mac (a.k.a Mac Guru)

I have been using computers since I was 5; I even learned to read on one. If something can be done on a Mac I can do it, or at least would really really want the opportunity to learn how. I climb with Dmitriy (EL PRESIDENTE) and over the years have done several forms of martial arts, until I messed up my shoulder. I also read voraciously, so if you got any good books, let me know.

Favorite Quote: No matter how subtle the wizard a knife between the shoulder-blades will seriously cramp his style.

Olga Babichenko
The Marketing Queen

So what if I got the job because I’m one of the owner’s baby sister? I represent the company in the Tidewater Area (Virginia) and if you have any questions about Kronos’ services, I’m the person to ask. As you can probably tell from the location of my bio (dead last on this page), I’m at the bottom of the company’s food chain. Since the company’s inception I’ve been doing marketing research and even some creative writing and one day I will plan a coup d'état and overthrow my brother and take his job (insert evil maniacal laughter here).

Favorite Quote: Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup.

Ian Boucher
Video Guru

Hailing from cities throughout the United States and Germany , I have worked in the realm of video production for approximately six years now, with training in broadcasting and film studies. I have experience in both indoor studio and outdoor field settings, and push the envelope on every production I work on. I am a proficient, efficient and passionate video editor, as well a knowledgeable actor, working on and around the stage and screen. I have been put in positions of responsibility on almost every major production I have worked on, from scheduling writing me etings, to handling actor rehearsals, to scouting and managing location shoots, to directing. Not only do I work hard, but I maintain and propagate an aura of compassion and honesty everywhere I go. I enjoy reading, writing fictional prose and scripts and spending time with family and close friends, who are my inspirations.
