It’s been a while since we’ve shared about our doings and happenings, but after a very busy couple of months, we finally have some time to share the latest and greatest news.

New Hires

Our Chosen peeps come first and are the most exciting news! Previous years, we were very hesitant to take on anyone full time (it’s a scary threshold to cross for a startup, as each person has a high impact on your company) and mainly worked with contractors. This year, however we’ve hired on a couple of great people full time, plus we’re still leveraging all of our wonderful contractors on large client projects.. getting the best of both worlds.

Winter King : Developer and DB Administrator

Winter (cool name, huh!) has been working with Chosen for over 6 months, and has been one of the most intelligent and hard working developers we’ve seen (and trust us, we know and meet a LOT of developers)! Winter is a strong PHP developer who loves Kohana, mysql, and mongo; bringing a lot of unique strengths to the company and our clients. Winter is now officially our partner, and will be growing into a role of CTO and helping the Boulder office grow over time.

Christina Tisdale : Seed Founder for Michigan

As of this Monday, Christina will officially be a full time Chosen partner, helping us with business growth and management. With a very extensive and diverse background in many roles, she has mastered many skills that will be vital to keeping the business well oiled and efficient. As of this summer, our founder Clay will be spending some months in Michigan attempting to start up a more official office and working with Christina to manage it long term.

Advertising and Web Services coming to Saint Johns, Michigan

Chosen is getting back to the grass roots in Michigan, in hopes that we can bring the thriving economy of Colorado to the loyal and hard working people of Michigan. We’re not saying that Colorado people lack these same qualities, but it is undeniable that there is plenty of tech related work in CO and a hurting economy and many talented, but unemployed people in Michigan. We hope to help foster the growth of technology in Michigan, offering jobs and services to the Lansing area. We’re a few months away from executing, but keep watch on twitter and Facebook
