Meet Our Newest Lifers!

So as many of you know, we've added some new people to our Life staff; six awesome individuals with their own unique set of abilities that will help us bring the good news vibe in bigger and better ways than we could ever imagine.

If you take a look to the nifty photo collage on the right (created by new Lady Lifer, Gina) you'll see the veterans and some new faces. We want to always put our best into everything we do and sometimes that means getting help from one of our great partners. These photos in the collage as well as the photos below were taken by the talented Brad Cavanaugh, owner of Air One Photography. We figure if you're going to do something, do it right. And Brad does it right every time.

Here are our six new Life Team Members. Click a picture to view a Lifer bio!

Gina Cullen

Gina is originally a Florida native, where she lived with her mom, dad, and little brother for 15 years. She has always been attached to art ever since she was a small child, but in her freshman year of high-school, she discovered the Adobe Creative suite, and subsequently, the world of graphic design. During those years, she spent nearly all her free time teaching herself Photoshop, HTML, and learning the tools of the trade for becoming a graphic designer. Her dedication and passion eventually paid off, as she became an Adobe Certified Associate at just 17 and moved onto college shortly after.
