She’s a whiz at teasing out the “big idea” and why it matters, and she understands the value of audience-centered writing. She’s one of those high-energy, multi-tasker types—she loves a good checklist, and she’s been described as disarmingly straightforward (her favorite compliment to date). Away from work, you can find her hanging out with her husband and four kids, walking her dogs, on the mat at yoga, and being humbled by her latest pursuit—rock climbing.

Sr. Web Developer

He’s the secret sauce keeping Wonderfeel’s site ticking. A digital wizard with over 16 years of experience in software, web development, and marketing, Bora is a born innovator who navigates digital makeovers with ease.

With her natural instinct for navigating the fast paced startup world, Nisa never holds back a good idea.
