Web

Kevin R. Tutt

Designer | Developer | Strategist

Kevin is a determined self-starter, with a passion for his work and focus on client satisfaction. He began working with websites mostly as a hobby in 2010. Having  worked in many sectors of IT, he found creating websites to be very rewarding, as it intersects his knowledge of IT principles with his drive for creative work. In 2018, he worked for a small marketing agency where he managed over 30 sites, built 6 new sites for their clients and introduced new tools and resources for efficiency. Aside from front end web development, he’s also quite adept at professional audio and video editing, which have been able to save time and money on a few projects. When he’s not helping clients create custom digitial experiences for their audiences, he’s often been known to attend house music nights at local music venues or visit his favorite local pizza spots.

Content

Sherry Taylor

Copy Writer | Content Editor

Much of Sherry’s 20+ year career in Professional Writing has resided firmly in the digital realm–making her a natural fit for our Content Team. Her experience, including digital content development for a Fortune 500 company, coupled with her graduate studies in both Professional Writing and Instructional Design, make her particularly adept at stepping in to bridge the gap between our clients’ content and their audience.

Julie LaVoice

Copy Writer | Content Editor

Julie’s love affair with writing led to her bachelor’s degree in Creative Writing and then compelled her to complete her MFA in the same. Her desire to spark that same flame in others has made her 13+ year career as an adjunct professor in English a natural fit at both the University of Memphis and Southwest. A passion as deep as hers is not content with merely being passed to others, however. It also demands to be expressed in practice, as evidenced by her decade+ career in Professional Writing. Her writing, editing, and proofreading have enlivened and perfected digital content for multiple global enterprises. Ever the optimist, she has also worked for 20+ years to correct Sherry’s comma abuse and has yet to give in. Fortunately for her employers, clients, and especially Sherry, Julie’s steadfast reliability and unfailing technical accuracy has saved many a day, project, and deadline.

Design

Beth Hilton

Graphic Designer | Art Direction

Beth Hilton is a graphic design enthusiast born and raised in Memphis, Tennessee. She is a proud product of Memphis College of Art where she earned two BFAs in Graphic Design and Book Arts. She’s been crafting design solutions for 13 years and even found time to redesign the logo for Sun Studio in 2007. Some of her other clients over the years include St. Jude, FedEx, Jerry Lee Lewis (the Killer himself) and the City of Memphis to name a few. She specializes in complete brand development through solid and consistent design execution…and works tirelessly to feed her obsession with the psychology behind what separates good design from GREAT design.
