Aaron is a technology innovator and cultivator of successful people and teams. He believes software should bring joy to its users and constantly evolve to their needs. In his early teens he started his career by cold-calling his first web-design customer, later in his mid-thirties he crushed a karaoke outing by singing a Backstreet Boys song, so he's going places.

Sarah is not a morning person, which explains her previous life as a morning show producer. She loves helping newsrooms find ways to slay social media strategy, almost as much as she loves the San Antonio Spurs. As SND’s most spirited Texan, she feels it's her duty to educate the team on tacos and warm weather.

Jordan and social media 'becoming a thing' was an accidental match. He's an avid user of things digital, social and selflessly, enjoys helping others. When he’s not face down in a phone or computer, he's busy being a social foodie and focused on family-time with a side hustle of building websites. Jordan resides in Dayton, Ohio (innovative and history rich) with his wife and three boys.

Kelli is thrilled to reunite with newsrooms even though she’s not stacking a rundown. Learning the ins and outs of digital toolsets is her jam and she thrives on helping others succeed by making sure they understand “why” something works. When Kelli’s not training newsrooms on a new feature, she’s probably getting crushed by her kids during family game night. Kelli lives in the Chicagoland area with her husband and two daughters.
