Jennifer Gregory
Sales rep by day. Grad student by night. Technical writer in the near future. I'm currently pursuing my Master's online via University of Wisconsin - Stout's Master of Science in Technical and Professional Communications (MSTPC) Program (3.92 GPA! Woohoo!) I work for T-Mobile USA as a retail sales rep, but I hope to change that very soon and snag an entry technical writing writing job before I finish out my Master's. My free time is limited between working full-time, going to school full-time, and working part-time as an intern with the Philadelphia Gay News, but I still manage to set aside a few spare moments to pursue some of my hobbies: reading, writing, and gaming. I'm starting up a new blog soon that will run parallel to my journey into the field of technical communications. Links and more information are coming soon!

Kevin Lee
Utility programmer, good at scaffolding stuff and framing out, not so good at finish and design work. Bug fixer extraordinaire. Aspire to make an Apple Featured app, something that melds visualization and art with programming. Or maybe something less ambitious like a kick-ass Philly Food Truck app. Not quite there, getting off tangent with utility database apps. And Android. I love Philly - as my friend Juliet says - when you go to New York - it's like you forgot it is picture day - so competitive. Philly is a salad bowl of authentic, interesting communities that I am proud to have become mixed with. "Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist when we grow up." -Pablo Picasso
