Renee Kemper
Web Dev & Social Media
Born in 1981, Renee Kemper is one of those weird, micro-generation Xennials (also known as the Oregon Trail Generation and Generation Catalano) who had a mix of an analog childhood and digital adulthood. Her first computer quit working while in college, and while sitting on hold with tech support, she took the computer apart, fixed it, and put it back...
 
 
together (then hung up on tech support). Her obsession with technology started long before then (AOL chat rooms, anyone?), but that was when it became clear—she was 100% nerd and would own it. Renee started designing websites before Wordpress was a thing (you know… Frontpage and actual HTML, ewww). She has worked in both the corporate and freelance spaces for over 19 years, on everything from project management to overall client strategy, including content, social media, and web development as well as developing long-term relationships with clients. Renee has also played a large part in PR, brand management, and business development for a long list of clients. Recently, she found a love for design, which she enjoys honing in her spare time. Her favorite things are coffee, solving problems, and playing with new software... mostly in that order. Renee and her husband, Aaron, live in Northwest Arkansas as brand new empty nesters with a deep wanderlust that will eventually lead them to become full-time travelers (whenever that random check in the mail makes them instant billionaires).

Nancy Netcoh
Creative/Designer

During her formative years, Netcoh was often seen hiding her 32-pack of crayons in hopes of maintaining their fresh-edged splendor.  Adulting, for her, meant spending a couple of fun-filled decades in corporate America blazing new marketing and event planning trails before fulfilling her dream of becoming a starving artist.  Netcoh lives to practice...

Tammy Warren
Business & Account Manager

Born as an identical twin and raised in Vermont, I married my high school sweetheart and had two lovely boys. When our boys were young we spent every weekend motocross racing.  Once that got too stressful we moved on to rescuing the ‘special needs,” pitties and have been doing that for the last 15 yrs and counting.  My first career I spent 30 yrs as a Certified Dental Assistant then decided to change my career and instead of...

looking down in the mouth I decided to look up and work in the art world. I have been the business manager and an account manager with Life is Crap and now with Life is High and some of our other art brands for eight years.  For a while, I brought a newly rescued pittie to work with me, Mr. Freddy. He became our office mascot until some of our files were chewed up and the furniture was redesigned with teeth marks. If I am not walking or hiking with the dogs…I enjoy spending time with my family and taking care of our 1st grandson Nash who is now 6 months old and does not sleep during the day!!
