This month marks a celebration of our three Folks: Mark Fjelsted, Gian Hill, and Moyosoreoluwa Akinola! Mark has worked at Folklore for three years as an Executive Director of Finance, but did you know he worked with the team four years before joining? His exceptional eye for detail in financial strategy and business planning is impeccable! Over the past three years, Gian, our account director, has been valuable in managing client projects and relationships. She is fearless yet able to lead with kindness. Did we mention that she won Folk of the Year in 2022? Moyo has been an important leader of our project management team for over a year. She consistently demonstrates outstanding organizational skills, ensuring projects run smoothly and efficiently. Her execution has significantly contributed to our team's success. They all show up with dedication and integrity, and we cannot thank them enough for their work. From the Folklore Team, thank you Mark, Gian, and Moyo for everything you do! Happy Folk-versary.

Say hello to Ummulkheyr M.— our newest client services intern! With a passion for inclusivity and accessibility, Ummulkheyr is always mindful of how digital experiences can serve ALL people. Welcome!

Say hello to Jen Nguyen—our newest copywriting intern! When Jen isn't cranking out killer copy for our clients, you can find her changing her hair color, getting a tattoo, or eating cheese (even though she's lactose intolerant). Welcome!
