Our Team

Andy Himes arrived to work here after putting his college degree in graphic design to good use stacking boxes at a toy store. He moved to Vermont after graduating from college and currently lives with his fiancé Laurie and their pet hamster. An aspiring fiction writer, Andy can be found working on one of his hundred unfinished novels, in hopes of getting something published before robots take over the world in 2050. He also harbors a fascination with pirate culture and would love to sail under the flag of the Jolly Roger if it wasn't for his intense aversion to splinters and scurvy.

Bob Rayl is a sky-diving magician who recently landed in Vermont. As the youngest of seven children, he's learned to quickly master new skills. When not jumping out of airplanes or pulling quarters out of ears, you'll find him plucking his guitar or spending countless hours in World of Warcraft.

Dan Worthing arrogantly considers himself both a writer and a cartoonist, despite strong evidence to the contrary. Though he spent his college years in Vermont, Dan has only recently returned to make it his home. He spends his free days exploring Vermont’s wilderness, seeking out its finest breweries, and enthusiastically plunking at his ukulele.

Erik Thomsen is a computer nerd trapped in the body of a nature nut. When he is not busy seeking out more films to add to his ever growing documentary collection, he can be spotted biking with trailer in tow to some obscure festival in a foreign land. He hopes some day to learn enough french to say something other than "I don't know how to speak french."

Jim Tourville grew up in New York State on the Northern edge of the Adirondack Mountains. He studied Anthropology for a time and then moved to Florida where he finished college and worked at multiple multimedia design agencies. Uncle Sam decided to give Jim an all expense paid trip to Kuwait in 2004. As a Sergeant attached to the Hawaiian Army National Guard Jim spent a year enjoying desert sunrises and eating spam sushi. After his Middle East jaunt Jim decided he was fed up with the dry heat of the desert and the humidity of Florida so he moved back North and settled into the beautiful (and primarily cold) Burlington, Vermont. He spends his free time reading news and blogs online as well as enjoying the vast offerings of Vermont with his fiancé Katie.

Ken Marshall is an urban refugee. He moved out of New York's lower west side 16 years ago and while the transition to small town life was a rocky one, he still hasn't looked back except to catch an occasional Jets game. His idea of fun is modifying popular video games and he can usually be found on a Friday night hunkered over his computer trying to figure out some obscure and basically useless scripting language like NWNScript or HamScript, or nostalgically playing arond with old DOS aps. His life's ambition is to faithfully reproduce Lara Croft in 3dsMax.

Kevin Montanarois a former New Yorker with a background in fine arts and more than 15 years of professional experience in website and graphic design. He's a gifted artist, a compulsive cook, a relentless motorcyclist, and a terrible mechanic. In his spare time Kevin enjoys bocce, sport fencing, and he restores and rides (and breaks) vintage Vespa motor scooters.

Kyle Buser was born and raised in the "quintessential New England village" known as Woodstock Vermont. He enjoys deep thought, and making people question their deeply held beliefs. As such, he often voluntarily plays the role of devil's advocate in order to challenge himself, and those around him. He is also a poker enthusiast and spends much of his free time baiting in fish online at Pokerstars. Having had a computer since the age of 4, Kyle is almost completely self-taught. He loves to learn and sees everyday at CPASiteSolutions as an opportunity to expand his knowledge base and technical skill set.

Norm Miller is our life long Vermonter. Being recently married and a new home owner, Norm has traded in his bachelor pad for a work shop, his mountain bike for a snow blower, his photography for gallons of wood stain and house paint, his Playstation for a chain saw, his Diner's Club card for a Weber grill, and his bowling night for a home bocce ball court. Rather then be an expert at any one thing, Norm is working on being slightly more then mediocre at a whole bunch of things.

Peter Creutzberger is an avid proponent of the geek chic lifestyle. He came to Vermont for the flora but he stayed for... well... the flora. He grew up in a suburb of New York City in New Jersey and decided during a nap in the car on the way to visit UVM that it was going to be the place for him. If he's not in front of his computer at home clicking away, he can be found in front of his tv "clacking" away at some vintage game, or behind his guitar hammering away.
