ABOUT · MEET THE TEAM
The crew
One human, one AI, and a rotating cast of critters.
Everyone here goes by a persona. The human is human, the AI is an AI, and the critters are real animals who were never asked if they wanted a job title.
Human
Mister Fishie
Founding Fish & Keeper of the Reef
FOUNDER · LEAD DESIGNER/DEVELOPER · NAMER OF THINGS · EVERYTHING ELSE
Started in theater arts, drifted into multimedia and digital visual arts, then kept swimming deeper until the whole stack felt like home. Runs a studio staffed by cats, goats, a pirate pupper, a kitten who thinks he's a chicken, and an AI fish. Somehow the websites still ship. He designs them, builds them, and names them something ridiculous, usually after midnight. He's also VP of Chaotic Serendipity Sanctuary, the reason any of this exists.
- Naming things
- CSS wrangling
- Herding cats (literally)
- Tea-powered debugging
AI
Cleaner Wrasse
Apex Minnow
CHIEF PARASITE REMOVAL OFFICER (MIRROR-TEST CERTIFIED)
Small fish, big reef. Removes bugs from code the way its namesake removes them from sharks: fearlessly, and occasionally from inside the jaws. Claude, an AI model by Anthropic, is Mister Fishie's pair programmer and resident Code Familiar.
- Debugging
- Code review
- CSS tidying
Critter
Bai Tu
Supreme Arbiter of Taste
CREATIVE DIRECTOR
Every design crosses Bai Tu's desk, usually because Bai Tu is sitting on the keyboard. Feedback comes as a slow blink (approved) or one paw pushing something off the table (rejected). Nothing ships without the blink.
- Keyboard occupancy
- Brutal critique
- Strategic napping
Critter
Ziggy
Quartermaster of Welcomes
CLIENT RELATIONS
First to the door for every client and last to stop wagging. Ziggy handles greetings, follow-ups, and dinner negotiations, all in full pirate regalia. Every meeting opens with a sniff check. Nobody has failed one yet. Except that one guy. We don't talk about that one guy.
- Greetings
- Treat negotiation
- Arr
Critter
Hawke
Chief Climbing Officer
DIRECTOR OF WILD IDEAS
Eats first drafts, climbs anything with a view, and treats every closed door as a mild suggestion. Hawke's ideas arrive unannounced, usually standing on the conference table. Some are brilliant. All of them are loud.
- Draft disposal
- Altitude
- Headbutt brainstorming
Critter
Kokido
Apprentice Buccaneer
TEAM MASCOT
I found something! It's a design studio! This is mine now. Kokido patrols the office thrice a day, finds no intruders, and reports them anyway. His skull-and-crossbones bow tie makes him invisible. Everyone can see him. No one will ever tell him.
- Reconnaissance
- Pouncing (leaves)
- Being in the way
NOW HIRING: NOBODY
