April is the amazing mother of Sydney and Evie, and once-in-a-lifetime wife to Marc (yes, Marc wrote that part). She has a strong background in sales and marketing, and is an accomplished photographer. Upon joining the Dallas Observer, April quickly became the top sales person, garnering sales person of the year. After her stint in direct sales, she successfully partnered with her father to create a highly successful Dallas-based photography studio -- and went on to create her own studio to focus on her creative interests and afford more time with her family. After years of "Blackberry bashing" at Marc's expense, she experienced the "a-ha" moment when she got her hands on an iPhone. Now, there is no looking back..
April holds a Bachelor of Science in Radio-Television-Film from the University of Texas. Hook 'em, Horns!
Sydney and Evie are our two interns-in-training (not really, but we tell them that so they get excited about what we are doing). We bounce ideas off of them, ask them for their "killer iPhone app ideas", and let them do play testing for us. But more importantly, we get to take breaks and play with them. Who needs water cooler talk or office gossip when you can read Curious George or play Barbie.
