We’re web strategists, designers, developers, and nonprofit zealots who care deeply about the work our clients do. We bring passionate creativity, genuine curiosity, and deep technical expertise to every project.
Meet the Team
Teresa
Though confused by long division and cooking, Teresa can ideate and design like nobody's business. She is a goldsmith in her spare time and enjoys collecting fancy hammers. She once met all of Pink Floyd, counted 17 shooting stars, and was seriously injured by a pot pie. When she's not strategizing and guiding FORM's creative team, she is probably soldering something, trying to get to Utah, or sniffing old books. She likes Icelandic compositional ambient music and spooning with her boston terrier, Hugo.
Jessica
When she’s not helping our clients with web maintenance or digital marketing, Jessica can be found paddle boarding on Lake Erie, solo traveling in the wild, and thrifting for mid-century knickknacks. She plays funk on a purple Fender and her green thumb is so green, even her plants have plants. She never skips an opportunity to watch Pretty in Pink and she enjoys detailed plans, kitschy cookware, and a healthy frizzle sizzle.
Hannah
As a child, Hannah was a noted marker artist, 4th chair trumpeter, and passionate porcelain cat collector. She was often in trouble for talking in class and named her toys with only adjectives. Studying in Europe, Hannah found that DaVinci’s Annunciation is larger in real life and that identifying shower gel from hand lotion is tricky when you can’t read Italian. When she's not designing for FORM, she enjoys live concerts, cafe mocha, and carving elaborate designs into pumpkins. Except for the Harry Potter logo. Because, come on, the letter “P” is so hard to carve into a pumpkin.
Ashleigh
Ashleigh tells us that, though deep-fried worms taste like potato chips, her favorite food is frosting. A dedicated saxophonist, she has performed a halftime routine wearing only one shoe. When she’s not writing code, she's quarterbacking, scrapbooking, or playing Led Zeppelin on her Fender Cyclone. Though she was once mistakenly detained for grand theft auto, she is the proud and legally titled owner of a vintage Geo Metro. She’s a big fan of making macarons, collecting bottle caps, and watching classic horror films.
Katelyn
Katelyn says the best of all chemistry constants is 6.02x10 to the 23rd power, and who are we to argue? A rare combination of mathematician, athlete, and artist, she holds a master’s degree in accountancy, runs marathons for fun, and plays the heck out of Chopin’s Revolutionary Étude for piano. When Katelyn's not leading FORM's operations, she enjoys walking her dog, reading tiny dictionaries, and making lemon macaroons. She once broke a picnic table with her head and she's a fan of words, Warren Buffett, and the number 20,710.
Steve
Steve is a supersmart, mostly pleasant guy with a penchant for sardonic vinyl toys and Diet Coke. He's an ardent music lover, and though his recent tastes skew toward post-modern shoegaze, he once willingly attended an Air Supply concert. It is rumored that he has quite a high IQ, which is plausible but unconfirmed by MENSA. A serial early adopter, he can’t bring himself to part with his robust laser disc collection. When he's not connecting with clients and guiding our developers, Steve is often skipping stones and building model rockets.
Rachel
As a child, Rachel admired the knife skills of Jacques Pépin. Today, she enjoys inventing new taco toppings and putting Old Bay on everything. She became a master of the bassoon because of her distaste for saxophones and eventually performed Verdi’s Requiem for a PBS documentary in Prague. When she's not connecting with FORM clients, she sometimes makes eyeless hand puppets, prays to St. Anthony for her lost Roku remote, and plays Radiohead on the drums. She’s a big fan of public media, minimalism, and melancholia.
Ryan
When he’s not writing code, Ryan is often gardening, singing self-affirming metal songs, or playing D&D as the cursed Warlock Bard Uriel the Younger. He once ate a sea urchin just to prove a point and says tuna salad sandwiches are the perfect food. He collects vintage video games and assures us that, though Gigan can’t beat Godzilla, he would probably win a fistfight with an ankylosaurus.
Michael
Michael is a man of few words and many board games (150, to be exact). In addition to writing code for FORM, Michael is a proficient hackeysacker and skilled MIG welder. He does not recommend sleeping in a 2004 Ford Taurus before running a full marathon. He keeps a mysterious blackbird on his desk, is a proud descendant of Johnny Appleseed, and likes dogs named after fruit preserves.
Michelle
Part philosophy scholar and part trash-talker, Michelle may argue the merits of shared humanity, but don’t challenge her to a soccer match unless you’re willing to lose your pride and a couple of teeth. She dislikes clutter but happily hoards houseplants, fountain pens, and cheese. When she’s not designing logos and websites, Michelle is flâneuring with her dog Rockwell, making perfectly timed carbonara, or singing melancholic post-punk songs at karaoke.
Emily
When Emily isn't managing our projects, she's busy neglecting house plants, sketching ex-boyfriends' cars, and crushing on Monty Don. She tries to grow vegetables and has eaten 730 cupcakes. A creative spirit and self-described lovey-person, Emily is a big fan of romcoms and keeps a hand-drawn record of all the flowers her husband has ever given her. She knows how to collect honey from bees, can make a perfect frosting curlicue while grudgingly dancing to Pitbull, and has a knack for finding the most inconvenient Airbnbs.
DJ
A self-described rule follower, DJ is a fan of well-laid plans, responsibilities, and chicken. But this always-designated driver has an adventurous streak, too. He climbed a mountain to propose to his girlfriend, survived a Monegasque taxi ride, and adopted a puppy during the pandemic. When he’s not writing code, DJ is probably battling beetles in his pickle garden, listening to F1 radio chatter, or avoiding assembling his 43-inch Lego Imperial Star Destroyer because there’s no way that thing’s gonna fit in his house.
Airport
CloseAn hour
to create.
The creative brainpower is palpable when the studio stops for Desktop Friday, an exercise designed to reset our creativity. A random topic. An hour to create. Who will crack under pressure? Who will lose it all in an epic crash? Who will go rogue and design in Play-Doh?
