Janay Garrick | Owner + Lead Creative
Janay loves helping clients erase these labels from their identities:
Unclear Technologist.
Unpublished Author.
Poor Nonprofit.
In first grade, Janay received her first award: “Best First Grade Storyteller” for a fairytale she wrote and later published with a wallpaper cover. Later, in spite of her father’s promptings to study engineering at Pepperdine University, Janay studied Creative Writing. There, she began her first novel and the formal pursuit of what has now become a writing career.
Today, Janay has worked on a wide range of creative projects from writing about cyber security, big data, and AI to blogging for high tech thought leaders to creating faith-based devotionals. As a former professor, she taught a broad spectrum of communications courses from Media Strategy and Nonprofit Communications to Fundamentals of Creative Writing. She is an experienced communications professional capable of tackling any project.

Pam Evans | Writer + Editor
Born and raised in Orlando, Pam graduated from Auburn University with a B.S. in Marketing. Pam is an adventurous soul with a voracious appetite for knowledge and a penchant for detail. Her writing endeavors include online articles, poems, marketing materials, editing and nonprofit experience. Weary of life in the city, Pam dreams of planting her nomadic roots and growing into a farmer.

Eliel Rosario | Brand + Design
Growing up, Eliel’s grandfather worked with an offset printer (read: old school printer) at home. Thus, Eliel says design and print work have been ingrained in him from the beginning, leading him to pursue a BFA in graphic design. These early childhood foundations later produced creativity and attention to detail in web and print design in both the private and nonprofit worlds. In addition to digital design, Eliel currently pursues industrial and product design and leatherwork.

Jessica Wood | Artist
Jessica experienced a childhood drenched in the rich foliage and startling sunlight of Papua New Guinea, a remote island in the Pacific. As a result, she feels most at home when surrounded by living things in their wildest states. She has a deep desire for contemplating and connecting with nature, while expressing its many facets of beauty through the visceral mediums of paint and pen.
