When “I” becomes “we”.
I started Lomalogue back in January 2010 so I could work more closely with start-ups and help them out in the best way that I could. It's been an interesting journey and I've been given opportunities that I never thought I would have, such as teaching, speaking and working with wonderful companies, and after three years of being a solo venture, I'm very pleased to announce that Lomalogue has hired.
Who's joining the team?
Firstly, Tim Parker is joining as lead user experience designer. Some people might know him from his radio show and blog You'll Soon Know. I worked with Tim at Picklive and at GoSquared and he's amazing so I'm very happy for him to join the team.
Next is Calum Gunn who will be our front-end end developer. He's a lot more famous for being singer in indie-pop band Dananananaykroyd and the experience of me hiring has been made weirder by hiring someone whose music you listen to.
And finally is Amelia Humfress who will be helping out with strategy and user experience. I met Amelia while teaching at the General Assembly Front-End Web Development course and know how passionate she is about making beautiful web sites.
What's next?
Lomalogue will still be working mainly with small companies and start-ups but we're also working on a start-up of our own. I'll talk more about this later but it's going to be an exciting next six months for all of us.
The studio space has been sorted, the MacBooks and Cinema Displays have arrived and we're ready to go. I'm very excited.
