He can still whistle the dial tone of his first 56K modem (from the days of super slow internet. So slow in fact, that it should have been illegal. Right up there with murder). Back then Dan was building systems for the US navy. He then joined an internet startup in Cleveland Ohio (of all places). Many years and roles later, he now spends his days dreaming up digital strategies and building pixel perfect digital deployments.

Yolandie fell in love with the ad world in 2001 working as a photographer’s assistant in Berlin.
