About Our Team
Dedicated. Creative. Energetic.
Cheryl Russell
Principal, Marketing Master, Designer, Cheerleader
In my free time, I’m almost always doing something creative – painting, photography, drawing. If I’m on the island, I’m probably riding my bike around town, perhaps headed to Mod to grab an iced mocha. If I’m in Austin, I’m hiking. And if I’m in Houston, I’m most likely in the museum district. Wherever I am, I’m likely holding a cup of coffee and with friends! (Galveston / Houston / Austin)

Jodi Paul

From technical writing to blogging, I’ve got words. A lot of them. And if I run out, I’ll get a few more from my small girl child. I’m McCartney to Cheryl’s Lennon. (Austin)

Jeannette Waldie
Proposal Goddess and Resume Royalty

Jackie Venable
Proposal Queen
When I’m not writing proposals or managing marketing projects, I’m in my sewing room or chasing a bull dog off the couch. But more likely in the sewing room drinking mass quantities of coffee—and thinking. (Houston)
