He spent 10 years as CMO and Head of Product at FiftyFlowers.com, bridging ad tech and ecommerce experience.

When he's not working, you can find Blu on the rivers of Idaho or with his two daughters, Alex and Eloise.

Through the multiple startups and agencies founded by Dom, he has had the pleasure of hiring and managing more than 100 engineers over fifteen years.

Dom supports his local community through volunteer roles within Boise’s startup ecosystem.

When not working, Dom enjoys spending time with his wife, two cats, and strumming on his guitar.

Marina brings over 10 years of e-commerce marketing experience. She loves developing and executing creative marketing campaigns that drive results.

When Marina's not working, you can find her spending time outdoors, eating her hubby's delicious cooking, and chasing after her adventurous daughter.

Nash has spent his entire career working with early-stage technology companies , primarily focused on new business development and strategic relationship development.

When he's not focused on Textual, you can find him at home with his wife, Mel, and newborn baby, Ivy!

Ricky brings over a decade of expertise in product and marketing (which are pretty much the same thing, right?) He prides himself in Dad jokes, stellar BBQ skillz, and a quick draw with the base-12 grid. He enjoys Helvetica and long walks in the mountains.

Ricky contributes with a robust history of running programs with Microchip, Digi-Key, Bodybuilding.com, Scensty, and the infamous Clinkle (see Silicon Valley).

Alex is a previous venture studio founder primarily building in the DTC & CPG spaces. With expertise in customer acquisition and retention, he builds relationship-first, profit-driven digital marketing funnels.

Atticus Kirkham has spent the last decade assisting startups in all stages of life with project management, business intelligence, and process automation. 

Atticus spends their free time performing poetry, reading Tarot for strangers, and exploring use-cases for emergent technology in memory care. 

I like programming, I am proud to say that persisting through complex challenges and finally reaching the solution improves my skills. Every challenge overcome is a victory and an opportunity for growth in my career as a developer.

When Chris is not working, you can find him playing soccer with his kid, making a BBQ with a beer or hiking in the mountains.

Coming Soon!

When I am not working I enjoy spending time outdoors with my family, shopping, and being creative.
